    Todd,
    First, thanks for responding. The batch import option will only look for files outside of the Avid (folders onthe network and “my computer” etc). I have already imported these quicktimes into the project. Batch import will take the QT I point it to, and then take about 3 minutes to create a new piece of video from that QT.
    !!!!!!! Just figured it out !!!!!!!
    1] Locked the bins with my new, working QTs.
    2] Decomposed my sequence and deleted all teh media (not master clips) to the old, bad QTs.
    3] In Decomp bin, chose “tape” heading.
    4] Click on tape name of BadQT.mov, Ctrl+C
    5] Highlight corresponding GOOD QT, modify, set source
    6] Selct “new tape”, Ctrl+V (had to do this because Avid would not let me type in the puntuation in “.mov”)
    7] Temporarily move GOOD QT into same bin as sequence.
    8] Highlight both, right click, Relink
    9] Repeat 143 times.

    And knowing…
    …is half the battle.

    Did I leave the iron on……?

  • I’m on an Avid Media Composer 10.6 and I did finally get all the QTs in at full resolution, but now I can’t yet figure out how to relink them. I’m quite used to relinking in Final Cut and I thought the Relink option in Avid’s clip menu would take care of it. It did not. I’m going to keep ploughing through untill I get it right. But if any of you Creative Cattle Ranchers have a helpful hint or four, I’d be much obliged.
