Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro Linking media in batches

  • Linking media in batches

    Posted by Victor Camacho guerrero on January 3, 2013 at 3:09 pm

    Hi hello,

    I got loads of projects from my former guy working in my job. The premiere projects are a mess. In after effects, the linking media works really well because link in batches, if you select something, it finds as well other files in that folder or related.

    The linking media in Premiere works one by one, which makes the process quite a hell.

    Is there any way to solve this or work faster?

    Many thanks

    Select all the clips in the project window.
    Then right click on the first clip and link.
    Rest will follow if in the same folder.

    Thanks Ann,

    it worked, but not totally straighforward. I guess I need to select only the media , if for example I press Ctrl+A to select all, this does not work well. Is this right?

    Another thing, I realized is when moving projects across the network and keeping the same structure in the folder, for example moving the root folder to another hard drive, sometimes the files are missing too. I imagine this is because the path are Global and not locally created . Is there any way to change this??

    Many thanks

    No.

    By chance, are you going cross-platform (Mac to PC, or PC to Mac), or if on Windows, are you perhaps going from a non-mapped server location to a local drive?

    This is a problem I’ve been doing a bit of side work on — perhaps you could contact me off-forum (see my profile)?
