    The headache that media offline has given me in DR is grave! It is my one main gripe with the software. Jay Thanks for this. One question on the last point re deleting render cache. I once had an almost unresolvable issue some weeks back and you're right clearing the render cache helped. I however met the issue again on export as DR is telling me that I have a missing clip and when I traced it to the clip on the edit page, it was working fine as long as I selected NONE for Render Cache, but as soon as I select 'SMART' the media offline re-appears. I am considering removing that clip from my project now, thankfully I can do without it, but what a disaster if it is a major part of my project. Any thoughts?

    Thank you so much for this video! Clearing my render cache did the trick. The weird thing was my videos could still be played and it didn't show it as "Media Offline" on my Timeline, but I wanted to add a transition and whenever I would try and see what all the different transitions would look like it would then say "Media Offline" in my preview. It also didn't help that I changed the file name which initially caused this issue in playback as well, but I changed the name back to what it was and that fixed that issue, but the whole transition thing was still an issue for some reason.

    I'm actually having a different issue with this and I am hoping you can solve my problem. The Video media that I placed in the timeline is all good, no framerate issues. However, it will FLICKER for a split second, every 5 seconds, that "Media Offline" sign. I initially thought that it was just a glitch in Davinci Resolve, but this flicker actually shows up when I export it. Can you PLEASE assist me with this?

    Case study: my media wouldn't come back online. The MOV was downloaded after being initially edited in iMovie and then WeTransfered to me. It was a normal MOV in my downloads folder. When I imported that in, it said Media Offline, and all the steps in this video didn't reconnect it. It played fine on VLC when I opened it on my PC, but Resolve couldn't connect the dots.

  • @Crashtastic_
    @Crashtastic_ Год назад

    First one did it for me. I had been stupid enough to move my raw clips into a new folder during the rendering process which resulted in the render failing and the media to appear as offline. I'm still new to davinci & video editing in general so I was puzzled. Thank you!

  • @reload54

    One of my problems is when I pull a photo into Davinci it says media offline the moment I pull it in? I thought it was something to do with indexed vs RGB or Jpeg vs Giffs but not sure why it's happening.

    I imported a bunch of my images into davinci resolve [I downloaded the program today] and only 3 of the images are loading and everything is offline despite the program knowing where they are
    I'm suspecting it is because I modified the names of images just downloaded of google
    though one of the images was an exported image and that worked
    so either I try to export every image I took instead or do some other method
    or just not changing the names of the things

  • @PoetryFilms

    Thanks for taking the time to post it. But, for what it's worth, as a new user I'm getting that Media Offline message for clips on an external SSD that DaVinci can clearly see and access (it even loads some from the same folders) but for reasons to do with fps it decides not to display. In fairness, I'm just testing out the Free version so this is probably one of the limitations of Free. But it's very misleading for the application to say Media Offline when it's clearly not. DaVinci Resolve is already a steep enough learning curve (coming from Lumafusion, which by the way has no problems with the same files). The developers might update some of their 'error' signage to be a bit more precise. Otherwise, very impressed so far with the Free version

  • @GabrielaHermed

    The only way I found to link a clip that was renamed on the drive is to use the replace function. In premiere you just point to the correct file. I think resolve should add that as it is easier.

  • @aracnoloco
    @aracnoloco Год назад

    Davinci showed me the red files although I did not change anything in the folder/file structure (did not move nor delete anything). store all my stuff for editing on an external SSD (relatively). What I noticed is that everytime I plug another external device, lets say a SD card in order to get recently recorded offtext the order of the devices SSD has the name T7 (D:) yesterday but now gets the name T7 (E:) because the SD was plugged in before the SSD an was assigned by the laptop SD (D:) and the SSD changed from T7 (D:) to T7 (E:) and thus Davinci loses the original T7 (D:). So the question is how to avoid the random assignment of the different devices by Windows (other that deliberate order of plugging them into the laptop)

  • @VideosByBob

    Here is another solution. My clip was in the media pool and was pointing to the correct location and I could play it on the viewer. It was offline only in the timeline. I tried all these steps, but nothing worked. Then I right clicked on the clip in timeline and clicked "Conform Lock with Media Pool Clip" and it reappeared instantly. That should be part of the software to do on its own.
