You can open the project from ANYWHERE, including the drive it sits on, without having to move it into the Shared>... folder. That's what the "new" External option is for, though you can simply point the Shared folder path to the external drive as well.

Hey all -
It's been a LONG time since I have had a gig on MC...mainly because all the MC houses in my region went to FCP and then to Premiere.Anyway, a client is bringing over a drive with material and a project file for a gig started on Symphony (not sure what version). I have MC6.5.2. So, a couple of "old brain refresher questions" (not in front of the system right now):Will there be a version/platform issue?Avid projects live in the Avid Projects folder and I believe that is in the Library folder on my Mac (10.7.5), correct? So I can just copy his project file over and it will show up in Shared Projects?As far as media goes, if I have to copy over his media how does on relink in MC? Will the system look for the media files on available drives on start up?I did a really down and dirty audio cutdown of a 13 minute piece to 6 minutes on (yes, really) iMovie on my iPad in my hotel and on the plane yesterday. Exported as an m4v. I am assuming that transcoding to a ProRes file via MPEG Streamclip is needed so I can have this cut as a reference?Thanks in advance. Actually really looking forward to getting back on the Media Composer and test my memory and muscle memory!Scott
