Copying Media
To copy one or more clips or masters:
1. In the contents pane, select a clip or master. To extend the selection, press
Shift-Up Arrow or Shift-Down Arrow. Choose Edit | Select All or Ctrl-A to
select all the media in the contents pane.
2. Choose Copy from the Edit menu or from the shortcut menu with a right-
click. You can also click the Copy button on the toolbar.
3. Select the location where you want to paste the item. This can be another bin
or anywhere in the contents pane when a bin is selected. The selected
location may even be in another Media Manager window. If both the source
and the destination locations reside on machines connected to the Fibre
Channel network, you may copy between machines.
4. Choose Paste from the Edit menu, or from the shortcut menu with a right-
click. You can also click the Paste button on the toolbar. A clip may be
pasted into the same bin it was copied from. In this case the clip is
automatically renamed. Media Manager automatically suggests a new name
that does not conflict with any other item at the selected location. The new
name is based on the old name with the addition of a number: source
becomes source_1. When you are copying clips to a volume other than the
source volume on a Profile system or an library system,
Paste Special is
available as an option on the Edit and right-click shortcut menus.
NOTE: It is possible to play clips or masters with VdrPanel or Tool Box
Editor while they are being copied over Fibre Channel.
To copy a bin:
1. In either the tree pane or the contents pane, select a bin.
2. Choose Copy from the Edit menu or from the shortcut menu with a right-
click. You can also click the Copy button on the toolbar.
3. Select another bin into which you want to paste the first bin’s contents. The
selected location may even be in another Media Manager window. If both the
source and the destination locations reside on machines connected to the
Fibre Channel network, you may copy between machines.
