Replacing Media In Clip in a Fusion Comp
I have a fairly elaborate composition in the Fusion page of DR16.2, but I need to replace the footage that constitutes the Media_In_1 node. When I drag in the new clip, disconnect the original Media_In_1 node and delete it, connect the new node at the head of the node chain, my Output goes blank.
What am I missing? I’m an AE user new to Fusion, so I appreciate your patience…

One of the reasons to use the stand alone fusion rather than the built in fusion…things like this are way easier.
There may be a way of decomposing the clip, swapping out the source, and then jumping out to the main timeline again….i honestly don’t use fusion in Resolve too much…
But this should work.
I would suggest you put your new clip at the end of the timeline.Go to your original fusion tree and copy everything.
turn your new clip into a fusion clip, and paste everything.
now do your connection change.Then put that fusion clip in the proper place in the timeline.
The fusion clip is registering that original clip on the timeline as the master of the domain, but it will easily let you copy complex trees from other comps into that domain.

Thanks so much, Glenn!
Unfortunately, when I tried the sequence you outline, I had the same result: I get no output from the newly composed tree. Once I paste the copied tree into the new comp, and disconnect the original Media>Output tree in that comp in order to connect the output to the end of the tree, I get no joy.
At this point (of course I’m on deadline!) I’d plunk down the entry fee for the standalone Fusion, and will do so if you think this will all become easier…
