WHAT HAPPENS IF…..?
What happens if….
I rename the clip in the bin?
There is no problem with renaming a QuickTime AMA clip once it is in your bin. Feel free
to rename your clips as you wish to keep them identified. The original name is preserved
in a different Column (SOURCE FILE) as mentioned previously, and is always available for
display.
What happens if….
I rename the QuickTime movie I am linked to?
The connection between your AMA clip and the actual QuickTime file is by the name of
the QuickTime file (as well as its location). This means if you rename a linked QuickTime
file it will go OFFLINE. If this is done by accident then the following three methods will
restore the connection:
Name it BACK, then close and reopen the bin and the link will be reestablished.
Select the Clip which has been renamed and choose FILE > RELINK TO AMA
FILE(S)… Navigate to the renamed QuickTime and select it to re-link it to its
clip.
Use FILE > LINK TO AMA FILE(S)… to create a new, separate clip using the
renamed version. The original clip will remain OFFLINE.
What happens if….
I recreate my QuickTime movie with the same settings?
If a change is made to the QuickTime movie this new version will link to the original clip
in your bin, and in your edited timelines, without you doing anything at all. If the new
version is in the same location, has the same name and has the same duration, then it
will automatically be the version of the movie the AMA clip will access.
