Link Media to entire project - not just an individual sequence - how to?

[teloscientist]

I just moved from prpro v.15 to v.23 new computer osx

When I import/open the project - all the files are unlinked to the source files.
When I open a sequence, the "link media" option under the file menu becomes available and I can "locate" the files.

However, I have a dozens of sequences - I want to link media for the whole project (not individual sequences - especially because all of the sequences acces sthe same folders). how can I do this?

Hi @teloscientist,

Thanks for the question. It sounds like you are having trouble with the Link Media dialog box. Files are not automatically relinked and you need to relink each item individually. I have a question for you. Is "Relink Others Automatically" enabled in the Link Media dialog box? If not, that could be the reason. Have a look and report back. Hope the info helps.

Thanks,
Kevin

thank you for the suggestion.

Also, go to the media bins in the Project panel. Those that show media offline, select all offline clips, right-click "locate media"

You should be able to relink entire bins at one go.

Thank you - that got me thinking.

I selected all the sequences and then clicked "link media."
It then guided me to link all the media with all of those sequences.
