Copying metadata: Interplay Copy copies metadata from the source folder to the destination
folder. If a clip already exists in the target folder, Interplay Copy overwrites the clip's metadata,
and any new properties are merged. For example, you are copying clips from WG1 to WG2 and
the same master exists in both workgroups. There is a custom property called Director for this
master clip in WG1 but not in WG2. After copying from WG1 to WG2, the master clip in WG2
will have the property Director. If the Director property exists on the same clip in both
workgroups, the value for the clip in the source folder overwrites the value of the clip in the
target folder.
Cannot Use Interplay Move when a Clip is In Use
If you try to use Interplay Move to move a clip that is in use (opened for playback in an Avid
editing application), the job fails with an error message “The file is in use, please checkin to
Interplay from editor or try again later.”
Specifying the Archive Segment Size
The Avid Interplay Media Services Setup and User’s Guide referred to 1800 frames as the default
and minimum archive segment size for partial restore operations. 1800 is the default value but
there is no minimum value.
Grayed-Out Reservation
If you select a folder to view or edit a reservation, you might see a reservation with grayed-out
information, as shown in the following illustration.
