¿Is there an easy way to transfer complete projects (with its media files) to another workstation via Ethernet?
In my work we have 4 Avid Xpress Pro (4.6 ver) Mac workstations with different types of projects, all in-line through ethernet. Normally when we start a project we try finish it in the same workstation, but there are times when we need to pass a complete project, with its media files, to another Mac. But when we "pass" the project folder and we open it in the "new" workstation the project appears "MEDIA OFFLINE". I have the knowledge that we also need to pass the "OMFI folder" in order to be able to reconnect the media, but since we have alot of information from other projects we can't transfer the whole OMFI folder in to the new workstation, besides I've tried it with no success. So, I'm asking for any one's help, who can show me how can I do it. I know it's possible because I saw somebody do it before, but he wouldn't teach me, and I haven't found any tutorial that explains it clearly.
Thanks alot for your Help.

In order to transfer only the specific media files for a particular project, you will need to use a 3rd party application like MDV, which allows you to sort and isolate media files by project at the folder level. This is the one serious deficiency of Avid's media management scheme, not being able to cluster by project at the folder level.
