    Why is "Resolution Tracking" greyed out?

    MC v3.0 & 1080p/23.976

    Media is at DNx36 and DNx115.  I'd like to see the two resolutions in different colors.  I go to Timeline Fast Menu > Clip Color > Resoltion Tracking ... and it's greyed out.  On another system, it's also checked, and greyed out.

    Randy, like dynamic relink, isn't resolution tracking an Interplay thing?

    Dang, you're probably right.  It wa also mentioned with Multi-Rez too.  Wouldn't it be just nifty, if Avid would "clearly" label all InterPlay features in the HELP, so you'd easily know the difference.

    Any other simple way to spot all the DNx36 clips in the timeline?

    Not simply simple but with some new (for us anyway) habits relatively so.

    Colour code resolutions in the bin at capture time. (We have a resolution colour code list in each room)

    Save a timeline view with show clip colours on.

    Set Bin Display to display media relatives, sort bin on resolution, color code the '36 clips.

    I'm pretty sure I remember several years ago, the standard Avid demo showed each resolution in a different color.  These were stand-alone systems, not on InterPlay.

    Can somebody from Avid chime in on this?
