Hi Pat, I’m in a similar situation as the original poster–this thread has been super helpful, esp. your answer here. I have a follow up question about AMA linked clips being offline:

My editor and I are working separately, from mirrored drives; we each have all the original camera media and all the same Avid project files on our drives. However, original footage was brought in via AMA using the editor’s drive, so the AMA linked clips’ sourcepath points to that drive, which I do not have mounted. As such, those same AMA linked clips on my drive are showing offline, the sourcepath pointing to the unmounted editor’s drive. (My trancodes are all online.)

So my question is: Will changing the AMA linked clips’ sourcepath to point to that same original footage, but on my drive, “break” or damage the existing transcoded clips’ link/ref. path to the original footage? And/or what does relinking AMAs to my drive then mean for when we want to relink the transcodes to online the project?

Many thanks in advance for any advice!
