[Avid-L2] Re: Relink AMA

I am doing my first project with AMA - We shot with P2 with the AVC 100 codec 1920 by 1080 P - 23.97.
I am editing on MC Soft Version 4.02 on an Intel Mac 2 x3 GHz Dual Core running OSX.5.7.

I was on location for the first four days and I simply copied the entire contents of each Card (3 cameras) into separate folders. I decided that I wanted to consolidate the media to AVID storage since I have an Esata RAID internally and I didn't want to re-link every morning... So I have been linking to AMA volumes - then consolidating all the clips to AVID storage. Also I was hoping to work with the full resolution clips...

The problem is that on the first day I wasn't there to transfer the cards ---the clips are not relinking. All five folders from that day show the clips but I cant get the media to link.

Even though i have read Paul Sampson's excellent PDF on AVID Editing Systems and Panasonic P2 File based workflows -- I am not sure what you mean by a quick load of a "new" AMA volume... There seems to be some corruption that I can't fix..

Any advice would be appreciated...
Thank you in advance for any help in this matter...
