Chapter 7 Overview of the Media Manager 81
I
Summary Area
The Summary area at the top describes what operation is about to be performed and
shows how much hard disk space the resulting media requires.
 Original: This bar shows the total disk space used by the media files associated with
your current selection. This bar may be segmented if the media referenced by the
selected items is found on multiple disks.
 Modified: This bar displays the total disk space that will be used by the same items
after the Media Manager processes the media files. If you’re recompressing or
deleting unused media, the Modified bar is often shorter, so you can see how much
disk space the operation will save.
When you move the pointer over each section of the bar graph, a description appears
that displays the size, location, and duration of the media represented by that section.
Different colored segments represent different types of media, with media files
represented by green segments and render files represented by blue.
Media Area
This area is where you choose what you want to do to the media files on disk that are
referenced by your selection—copy, move, recompress at a specified sequence preset,
process only existing media, or create offline clips (creates a copy of clips or sequences
with no associated media). You can also choose to include render files, delete unused
media, and add handles.
Move the pointer over a
bar to view the disk
space for the specified
items.
