About Project Configuration Files
A project configuration file is a text file that is parsed when you select a project
in the application. A project configuration file uses the same name as the
project, but with a .cfg extension. For example, the project configuration file
for a project called “my_project” uses a project configuration file called
my_project.cfg.
Project configuration files are located in the
/usr/discreet/project/<project_name>/cfg directory. You can open a project
configuration file in any text editor.
NOTE Although you can modify project configuration files, the Project
Management menu provides editing tools to modify projects from session to
session as needed. In general, you should not have to modify project configuration
files manually.
Project Configuration File Templates
When you create a project, you select a template from which your project's
configuration file is generated. These templates are based on a resolution and
framerate, and define the display environment. Project templates do not
prevent you from working with clips of other resolutions and frame rates.
However, some functions, such as display on a broadcast monitor, may not
be supported.
These templates are located in the
/usr/discreet<product_home>/cfg/linux-x86_64/template directory.
