That could be a good solution. I'd have to toddle off and learn how to
relink, but it's worth it if that would work. Unwrapping with ClipWrap is
really fast.

My question (on the DS list) was: If you unwrap AVCHD to Quicktime using

If yes, Tone could AMA in the original media and relink the seq to the new

The import process will be MUCH faster and it won't hang.

Convert to offline resolution and edit. Then in online, remount AMA and
