    I drag a folder of media from my Hard Drive into Premiere, a bin is created, I add more media to that folder on the HD.
    Can I have the bin update to reflect what is in that HD folder?

    Thanks!

    Probably not without some additional coding/scripting. When Premiere imports files especially camera archives, it creates an interesting file. You can track that down and right-click it a choose view contents and then do it again. You can see that premiere is doing something beyond simply “pointing” at the media.

    Well drat. If there really is no option for that, I think I’ll send a feature request to Adobe. It would be amazing for those mid-way add-ons, rather than dragging from my downloads folder to the project directory and then from that directory to Premiere. Thanks for the response, Richard!
