    linking to AMA files after they have been moved

    Hello, I wonder if anyone can help me. I am working on a project that has been moved from one location to another. It was shot on Super 16 and a Canon 5D. The Canon footage was linked via AMA. When trying to relink the AMA files in the cut I am told that the file path doesn't exist. When I select the clip that is now offline and create a new 'link to AMA' a second online clip is created and the media in the sequence remains offline. 

    Any suggestions would be much appreciated,

    All the best,

    Namh

    I believe you have to select the clip in the bin, right click and RElink to AMA file...

    No, that's where I'm told the path no longer exists

    I usually just make a new 'junk bin' and do Link to AMA again on all the footage at the new location.  All of the old existing clips in whatever bins you had them in should link back up, and then you can throw the junk bin away.
