To relink selected clips or clips in a selected bin:
1 Do one of the following:
Select one or more clips in the Media Pool browser that you want to relink, then
right-click one of the selected clips or the selected bin, and choose “Relink Selected
Clips” from the contextual menu.
Select a bin in the Media Pool bin drop-down menu that contains clips you want to
relink, then right-click the selected bin and choose “Relink Clips for Selected Bin”
from the contextual menu.
2 When the Relink File dialog opens, choose a volume and directory in which to look for
the files you want to relink to, and click OK. DaVinci Resolve attempts to find every clip
with a matching file name in the subdirectories of the directory you chose, using the
original file paths of the clips being relinked to do this as quickly as possible. By first
looking for the clips in the directories they were originally in, relinking can be quite fast.
3 If there are any clips that couldn’t be found using the method in step 2, you’re
prompted with the option to do a “deep search” by a second dialog. If you click
Yes, then DaVinci Resolve will look for each clip inside every subdirectory of the
directory you selected in step 2. This may take significantly longer, but it should be
completely successful so long as the media that’s required is within the selected
directory structure.
4 If there are still other clips that couldn’t be found, you’re prompted to either choose
another directory altogether to continue searching, or quit.
