98 Part I Media and Project Management
2 In the Media Manager, choose the following options, then click OK.
Note: If the clips in your sequence are affiliated with clips in other sequences, and your
master clips have no In or Out points set (or Out points set near their Media End
points), there may not be very much media deleted.
Example: Duplicating a Sequence and Its Corresponding
Media Files
In this example, a sequence is copied to a new project, along with its corresponding
media files. The new sequence clips refer to the new media files, while the original
sequence still refers to the original media files.
For example, you may have captured an hour’s worth of media from tape, but used
only 45 minutes of it in the sequence. You can duplicate the sequence and create
copies of the media files referenced by the sequence, but without the unused 15
minutes of footage.
1 In the Browser, select the sequence you want to duplicate.
Choose “Use existing”
from this pop-up menu.
Click here to retain
only media used

Handles checkbox,
