TipTo use clips from the Workspace or Workspace Library as sources, drag-and-drop them to the Conform Media folder.
To locate the directory that contains the sources:
- In the Conform tab, click Set Search Directory.
- Using the Set Directory window, select the directory where the sources are located.
- Click Set.
Flame Premium clears previous sources from the Conform Media folder, and then displays all the media files from the selected location,
including any media files located in sub-directories.
Notes
- Flame Premium only loads files it can use in a conform, so do not worry about non-media files being loaded to the Conform Media folder.
- Use the options found in the General and Format Specific Options tabs of the Set Directory window to modify the characteristics
of the source files found: edit their resolution, bit depth, debayering settings, etc. Keep in mind that this will either
facilitate or hamper the relink, depending on the settings and match criteria you set during the conform.
- When you load sources using the Set Search Location button, Flame Premium does not import the media files at that time: it creates only a list of references to the clips. This means that:
- Even if proxies are enabled for the project, Flame Premium does not create proxies for media files loaded in the Conform Media folder. Proxies are only generated when you link an event
to its source.
- Flame Premium does not cache source media loaded to the Conform Media folder until you actually link an event to its source.
