Grey stripes/lines on timeline, media is missing (not red screen)

Community Beginner ,
Jul 06, 2021 Jul 06, 2021

I recently got the red screen because of missing media problem on my timeline, and chose the 'find & connect' option to fix it.

I accidentally chose the wrong media to reconnect to, and now my timeline is showing grey/white stripes in the place of this missing media. 
The option to 'find & connect' has now disappeared. 

 

Please advise, thank you much.

The new (incorrectly) replaced media probably was shorter in duration. There wasn't enough footage to fill the edit, so you get the error (striped section) notification.

 

Unfortunately, in the current public version there is no "Replace Footage" in project assets.

 

Workaround:

  • Make sure you aren't sync'd to the CCloud
  • Create a separate folder and move the existing (incorrect) source footage to that directory.
  • Red "Missing" Error will occur. Choose previous (correct) source footage.
