Re: [Avid-L2] Stuff I wish they'd fix

That's actually the way I've done it in the past. Create a new project for the on-line and open up ONLY the single bin with the final sequence in it. I have been writing a new Avid book and have interviewed a lot of off-line and on-line editors from top TV primetime TV shows and feature films and this is their methodology as well. Don't deal with the offline project at all - only a single bin with the final sequence.

I usually check all the media creations settings anyways because traditionally Avid has had a habit of forgetting where they were set and changing them when you reopen the problem. Perhaps that has finally been fixed but since I bounce around on different versions it's one of the things I just check automatically when I open a project.

Any Project setting can be set by the user to be a Site setting, so the only person you have to blame for a lack of site settings is yourself.Or are you saying (because I don't have to deal with this) that because the project was originally created using a specific Media Creation setting, that it can't be overridden by your Site Setting? Otherwise, I have Media Creation settings as Site settings. I have audio settings as Site Settings. I have many "Project" and "User" settings set as Site settings, but I don't know if they override someone else's settings coming in... Most of my on-line for the last 10 years has come from my own off-line, or it's on projects where I'm so set in my ways, I guess that I figure "of course I'll have to set that as a setting."
