got it.. I will give that a try.. I also noticed that in the bin display I can see the reference clips and some of them I can actually consolidate as an entire clip..
so my question is, if I work on a project with consolidated media with handles, and someone else with the entire media library (mxf transcodes) wants to open that project, would my consolidated project be offline for them? And If I work with the consolidated project the filenames add an .new extension and in that case would I have issues exporting for online in DaVinci..
thanks!
