    Help linking (many!) files...

    winger999

      I need to make some changes on a project edited by another person.  They backed up the project on blu-ray, I have copied the files from the disks to my hard drive.  Of course, the path is not correct and I am hoping to not have to relink the over 1000 files.

       

      Using a pc with Premiere Pro CS6.

       

      Can anyone help me out?  If not, I have to get to work relinking files!

       

      Thanks,
      Steve

          When you open the project it will request where a certain file is. If all the project files are in the same place, then pointing the sought file to the right directory will automatically include all the other files. In short, you should only have to indicate where the first missing file is. PPro will then link all the others in that are in the same folder.

            That is what I had done in the past, but was having problems this time.  I think it may be the original editor possibly changed some file names, but I did find the majority of the clips needed.  Thanks for the help.
