Deleting an asset

You can delete assets to free storage space. You can safely delete a clip without harming the subclips,
playlists, and programs created from it. The media referenced by subclips, playlists, and programs
is preserved when the clip is deleted. Once the source clip is deleted, subclips and playlist events
retain an extra 1 second of media before and after their mark points to allow some trimming.

If you want to delete an asset that has a sub-clip or that is part of a playlist or a program, you must
first use the Consolidate Media feature.

Deleted assets are moved to the Recycle Bin unless the bypass Recycle Bin option is used. You
must empty the Recycle Bin to free storage space.

To delete an asset:

1. If associated with playlist, program, or sub-clip, right-click on the asset and select

Consolidate

Media

.

2. Select the asset or assets in the Asset List.

3. Select

Delete

using one of the following:

Select

Clips | Delete

.

Select

Delete

in the asset context menu.

Click the

Delete

button in the Clips pane.

If the Delete button is not displayed in the Clips pane, refer to assignable buttons in the Guide
to using the Clips pane section.

A progress dialog box appears when deleting multiple assets. If the selected asset is contained
in the Recycle Bin, it is permanently removed; otherwise, it is moved from its original bin into
the Recycle Bin. If an item of the same name is already in the Recycle Bin, the new item is
automatically renamed.

NOTE: Assets that are locked or currently being recorded cannot be deleted.

Erasing a clip's unused media

For K2 Summit/Solo systems, you can use the Consolidate Media feature to delete unwanted material
from trimmed clips, subclips, programs or playlists. Although similar to the Erase Unused Media
feature in K2 Media Client systems, there are some differences in how material is handled. The
following table describes the similarities and differences.
