Reload media to

Post by paul401 » 25 Feb 2011 13:33

I have noticed in my project external file links for media that most are shown to the project data/media file but quite a lot are showing to other drive locations.
Can I force FH to recopy all media and links to the project data file.
I think this may have been answered before but couldnt find it. thanks

I don't think there is an automatic way other than at project create. You can just copy the files over to the media folder in explorer and then remap the locations though.

So presumably if i create a new project by importing the same ged file with a new name it will reload all the media and job done?

Have tried the above and it works fine. Open a new project with a new name but import the ged file, hey presto same project but all media now in project file. simples.[smile][smile]
