Preparing media items for playout

Sometimes, you may want to perform the same asset-management task on a batch of assets;

for example, to change category tagging or to delete multiple media files from a particular type

of location. You may do this after selecting multiple assets (by pressing the Shift or Control key

while clicking in the results pane).

Instead of a single asset name in the header bar, the Property Editor displays: “Multiple Items

Selected” followed by a number that shows how many assets are selected.

Viewing a media file in the Media Viewer

When you select an asset for which there is a media file available, you can load the file in the

Media Viewer. This works in different ways for different asset types:

Asset type

Media Viewer operation

Video clip
Audio clip

Options you set for the Media Viewer affect how it handles the file:

The Media Viewer may automatically load the file; or it

may wait for you to load it.

Where there is more than one media file for a video clip,

the Media Viewer selects one of a default type to load. You

may specify the default type. You may override the default

selection by loading any other available file for the clip.

The Media Viewer may load the complete file or just the

section defined in the asset (i.e. between marked in- and

out-points).

You set these options in the Media Viewer Settings menu.
