project file(s) again and begin new proxy generations and/or preren-
dering processes.
y If applicable, shut down the DVS software.
y Open a file manager, e.g. the Windows Explorer.
y Select the project specific path of the temporary data on your main
storage.
y Delete all files and directories stored in the respective directory
manually.
y After that start the DVS software and load the project(s) in ques-
tion.
Once each project is loaded, the DVS software recognizes that the tem-
porary data is no longer available.
For prerendering this means that all parts of the timeline that had to be
prerendered are marked for a prerendering again (see section “Preren-
dering of Timeline Elements” on page 6-46). Then you may start a new
prerendering process, for example, with the menu option Prerender
all (see section “Prerender all” on page 9-15).
For proxies this means that you will receive the original material auto-
matically again. Afterwards you may start a new proxy generation pro-
cess, for example, with the menu option Generate proxies (see
section “Generate proxies” on page 9-21).
Once the creation of the new temporary data is finished, you can be
sure that all files in the directory for the temporary data are valid ones.
It is recommended to perform the procedure described in the
following only when you are sure that the directory for the
temporary data contains material for the respective project(s)
only. For this it is best to use a project specific directory struc-
ture as described in section “Notes on Project Management”
on page 2-14.
Do not delete temporary data manually while the DVS soft-
ware is running.
The path to the location of the temporary data is stored project
specific in each project file. With the respective project file
loaded in the Edit Tool, it can be found in the Configuration
Tool of the DVS software (group Project, field Path for proxy
data, see “CLIPSTER Configurations” user guide).
After the creation of temporary data save your project file. If
an already saved project file is not saved after such a process
again, the temporary files will not be recognized by the DVS
software when the project file is loaded once more: Neither
will they be used for a play-out nor can they be deleted via
the software. In such a case they have to be deleted manually
again.
