      Remember - this can only work on an intra-frame codec. If you have H264 or H265 LongGOP codecs it simply can't be done without re-encoding. That's because frames in those codecs depend on information in previous or later frames, so at least around the frame boundary you have to re-encode.

    Very helpful tutorial. I am using this method constantly with two more tricks:
    1) I have additional timelines that carry the render versions that I want to keep - so, DR Media Management archives those render files, too into the project archive.
    2) I do not leave the folder hierarchy counter at 0 - instead, I figured out at which folder hierarchy level my files reside. This avoids the creation of unnecessarily deep target hierarchies.
    Hope this helps a bit.

    dude, this is amazing. Thank you for delivering! Usually, I watch these videos and know the vast majority of the contact, but this truly fix is a major headache for me. And I thought of another workflow utilizing it that may be helpful (at least for me):
    Going through b roll first, and cutting for all good B-Roll, regardless of whether I wind up using it in the final piece, and then run the media management process on all of the b roll before continuing on to the main timeline. I often need to use the b roll i didn't use on the particular project for another project or many others down the line. I suppose I could just throw all these onto the main timeline at the end and run media management and achieve a similar thing, but I'd prefer to have them on separate timelines. Probably 6 of one, half dozen of the other in terms of workflow though 🤷‍♂️. Unless you've got a better idea!

      I don’t have a process for archiving really. I just save the folder with the media managed assets and the project stays in the local database with a special designation. I’m guessing the .dra allows you to take the project with you so you don’t have to depend on having access to your regular database to open it back up?

    also, if you delete all timelines besides the one you want (duplicate your project first), you will be able to copy, trim, and relink to the copied and trimmed files. this will keep your grades.

    I think with one of the more recent releases PR will let you save the original raw clips while doing media management. We use it a lot at work when we get hardrivers from other production companies. Though the trade off is that it won't keep any of your file structures and just throws it all into a folder with no organiziation.

      @@DylColeman you can find it under home icon at your projects. Simply rmb on it and choose export archive. It save .dra file like a zip with all data in it. So you can transfer it as you wish with all media and settings by just import it in other dr.
      Good thing to do before is to remove unused media from project or even to do that cut save thing you do, simply optimize it before you export.

    This is great! But I do wonder if you don't preserve the file structure, if the newly created DRT file would be updated with the new source files location.
    I will be trying this. Great stuff

      @DylColeman  10 месяцев назад +1

      I think it definitely will with the entire-project method. I think it should work fine with the timeline method as well when you open the .drt file, but personally I always prefer a little bit of organization instead of every type of asset in one place

    I have to say, that's a great video! I was recently wondering what should my strategy be with managin all the individual clips. I didn't want to just delete old stuff, but keeping it all is also not an option. This looks like a very intentional way of organizing media. I think it will help me with my hoarding tendencies.

    Had an issues of this failing repeatedly. Making sure that Preserve hierarchy is set on anything other than 0 prevents it from failing but I'm now having issues that it just apparently misses files.
    I let it finish then removed some of the original files only to find that I now have loads of unlinked media if I open the project again. I checked the project folder created by the media manager and some files are missing, some are there but unlinked and others are fine. It is incredibly inconsistent which ones are there and missing. No specific characters in the name, file types or anything specific to point the finger at.
    If anyone has any ideas I'm all ears. Hoping it's an error on my part since that's far easier to fix.

    Method #2 sounds wonderful & I'm still trying to get the process to sink into my brain. On the codec issue, I'm mainly using pre-existing video, not raw camera footage. Does that make a difference on whether using Timelines or Method 2 to edit is safer? I'm not spending a lot of time in the Color page on grades or more complicated lighting fx (yet) so wanted to be sure...thanks! * *new sub* *

    • @DylColeman
      @DylColeman  27 дней назад

      Hey there! Thanks for the sub. The type of footage that you're working doesn't really affect which method you would use, I just like Method 2 because it also saves all those stills and groupings on the Color page. If you're not doing a lot of Color then media managing by Timeline should work fine for you. That's the method I used for a while until I tried out the other way

  • @theindiefilmdude
    @theindiefilmdude 11 месяцев назад

    Just Awesome! I did notice though that even though it appeared to have saved your grades, it Didn't save the original Power Grade for the Color...... I'm assuming you'd be using this method for when you are closer to your Final Delivery and your color should be at it's final stages.
