Duplicating Media
To duplicate media means that you copy a clip or master and the underlying
media files that the clip or master reference. A normal copy operation does not
copy the associated media files, only references to those media files.
To duplicate a clip or master:
1. In the contents pane, select the clip or master you want to duplicate.
2. Choose
Duplicate
from the
Edit
menu or from the shortcut menu with a
right-click. The Duplicate operation always automatically renames the new
clip.
Creating, Renaming and Deleting Bins
A bin can have a name up to 32 characters long. Spaces are legal characters, but
count for two characters. Colons (:) and slashes (/) are illegal. Tildes (~) are
only illegal as a first character in a bin name.
To create a new bin:
1. In the tree pane, select the machine or volume where you want to create the
new bin. When a volume icon is selected, the new bin is added to that
volume. When a machine icon is selected, a new bin is created in the first
volume in that machine.
2. Choose
New Bin
on the
File
menu or from the shortcut menu with a right-
click.
3. A new bin called
NewBin
is placed in the tree. The bin name is highlighted
so you can change it. Accept the new bin name by pressing
Enter
.
Rename All

copied to avoid name conflicts at their new location.
Rename
Use the replacement clip name to change the name
of the current clip at its new location.
Replace
Delete the clip currently at the destination to resolve
the conflict.
