Thank you for getting back to me. I’m new to Resolve, obviously.
I didn’t realize that deselecting “automatically import media” would aid the relink. I did that and it worked. But that only seems to work when the XML is Imported into the same project that had the original transcodes – meaning the project that contains the original camera masters Imported to Resolve and the timelines used to export the clips to proxies. Is that the only way Resolve works?
Have you imported your original media into Resolve, or are you trying to get Resolve to find it on its own? I typically bring in the media before I import the xml (for me an aaf).
I just tried this – Importing the media into Resolve and then Importing the XML. It worked. Is the way it should be done if dailies were made from multiple projects?
Then import the aaf and deslect the box to automatically import media.
Resolve will then ask you where the media is, and you can point it to the bin where you just imported your raw clips.
If this doesn’t work, it might point to an issue with the original dailies not having proper reel information attached.
Resolve never prompted me about finding any clips. How could I make Resolve do this if I had to manually reconnect master clips/timelines to the camera raw?
When you bring in your xml, do the clips show a proper reel id that they are looking for?
I haven’t seen anything anywhere about a “reel id” in any of my tests. Where can I find this and edit the information?
Thanks kindly.
