Consolidating media
To consolidate media:
- Select the clip in the asset list.
- Right-click on the asset and select Consolidate
Media.
A Consolidating message box appears.
Note: To verify that the media has been consolidated, you can check the file size in the V:\ drive.
After consolidating media, the following is true:
Media outside the clip marks is erased except that portion referenced by a subclip, playlist event, or program.
All subclips and events generated from the source clip retain 1 second of media before the mark-in and after the mark-out.
Event-in becomes the first video frame of the file.
Event-out becomes the last video frame of the file.
Clip length becomes the total file length.
