  • Missing Footage?

    Posted by Rex Polanis on May 12, 2012 at 3:21 am

    Ok, I built a new computer and transferred everything from my old drives to my new drives.
    Now I am trying to render a Digital Juice Ready2Go project that I completed on my old machine but never rendered. I replaced all the missing footage by double clicking one file and replacing it; everything showed up as expected.
    Now when I hit render, a error message pops up telling me “26 footage files required for rendering are missing”?
    I type “missing” into the project search and nothing comes up. When I preview the project everything looks fine. When I look at the individual comps, everything is there. I even typed missing for each comp; nothing comes up.
    When I just render the project anyway, it renders with parts of the project as those ugly color test bars in certain places while other things are just fine?
    I can not figure out why it’s doing this. Can someone please help me? Thank you.

    You’re good to go if you’ve replaced all the required footage and a “missing” search in the Project Panel serves up a blank page. It’s a bit of a nuisance especially when you’ve replaced all the footage. Something I’ve not tried is to re-save the AEP with a new name. Perhaps it’s worth a shot.

    OK? It started working this morning and I didn’t do anything different? Thank you for the reply Ron. Computers and software do strange things sometimes.
