Project Operations
Custom
If “Custom” is selected, the following options are available:
• Remove unused clips in Timeline - removes clips from the Asset Bin
that are not used in the Timeline.
• Leave only areas used in the Timeline - saves as another file the clip
areas in the Timeline that are used in the project. These new file(s)
then replace(s) the file(s) currently on the Timeline.
Note This option is available for AVI files only. The new file(s) are saved in a folder
created in the project folder.
• Copy used files to Project Folder - copies all the clips used in the
project to the designated project folder.
• Delete unused files in Project - Delete all unused clips from the
project folder.
Note This option is available only when one of the other custom options is
selected. Even if the delete unused files option is selected, files may not be
deleted if user access rights to the project folder do not allow delete opera-
tions.

If a proxy clip is used, select the proxy data type from the drop-down list.

message is displayed. Click the Yes button to continue.
Import AAF Files
Advanced Authoring Format (AAF) is a multimedia file format that allows
the exchange of digital media and metadata between platforms, systems,
and applications. Authoring applications that support AAF (such as
EDIUS, Avid Xpress and others) read and write data in AAF files to the
extent that they support the format. AAF is a widely-recognized file
exchange standard for video editing.
