Interplay - consolidated sections of clips going offline

TrevorA — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 08:37:52 GMT

It's that time of year again - editors let loose in the wild west of an Interplay environment.

We are having issues with small sections of source media going offline randomly.

Some of the clips with missing sections were previously consolidated (not
transcoded) from AMA linked XDcam material. The rest of our media is DNxHD120.

These appear to be sections of master clips that have been used in sequences
that have also been consolidated to local removable drives. It is not all the
consolidated sections though. (It *may* be just the xdcam original material.)

There is a similar issue where opening a sequence shows offline clips that can
then be 'relinked' by matching frame, finding bin and then loading the 'offline'
clip in the source monitor.

We are also finding that quicktimes that were imported locally are going
offline.

We do have dynamic relink enabled - not to mix resolutions but as a way of
getting previous years sequences to link to media on local, media indexed,
removable drives - so we can consolidate that media onto the Unity.
