Re-Import Will it relink?
Hi all,
Am involved in long term feature film shot on RED & p2 here in Sweden which is just going to print. We are now on preparing for the DVD’s extra, deleted scenes and bloopers etc… Unfortunately half of the mxf’s and backup have been erased meaning half the clips are offline.
The video part I am pretty sure about, I sort the clips online/offline form original import. Re-import the material via proxies that are offline and bobs your uncle. My question is what do I do about p2 material and also about sound. The material that is offline for this, how do I re-import merge this.
Or am I totally thinking wrong will this method work?
BTW: I sort the online/offline ascending, copy the files that are offline. From bin I create an ALE that I then change to a batch script to copy files to one folder which I then export proxies from via redrushes or similar. So all the ALE files will be made into proxies with the same name, meaning no problem on merging part.
Anyway any hints and tips would be appreciated especially with the P2 and sound…
Regards
Marcus

batch import. If you just import them, they’ll have totally different omfi names.

ok, but the p2 how do i relink when batching?

Just put the cards back in the drive ya had em the first time. It’ll seek and find if you use batch.

ok cool, do I just look at the source and rename the drive if they have been moved?
