    guys pls help total panic moment, my NLE after restoring from a backup:

    Media Offline

    Media Offline
D:\Footage\Day2\CAM_A\A002_0417.mov

    just teh audio files are offline. The footage isn't deleted, just moved. i realy don't want to rebuild the timeline by hand. How do i reconnect everything?

    I've learned my lesosn about moving files carelessly. right now I just need to get this project working again, then I'll fix my organization :D any help would be hugely appreciated right now.

    ahh classic use Media Management in Resolve (File > Media Management) to copy or consolidate a project with all its media before moivng to another computer. fingers crossed 馃

    ok so if drive letters change on external drives, assign a fixed letter in Disk Management: right-click the volume, Change Drive Letter and Paths, and set the one the project expects. fingers crossed 馃

    If u moved all media at once, use File > Project Settings > General Options > Mapped mount or a path mapping so Resolve replaces teh old root path with the new one for every clip.

    been there man if file names changed too, relinking by name wont work 馃槶 use the clips metadata (timecode and duration) and relink manually, or restore teh original names if possible. good luck man!

    oh ive been there lol for teh future, keep media inside one project folder structure and move only the whole root folder, relinking then means pointing to one lcoation.

    Id duplicate the project before relinking 馃敟 If something relinks to teh wrong clip, you still have a clean version to go back to. but hey ymmv
