Storage Locations - relinking entire Library at once?
I'm moving to a film I last worked on in the spring of 2022. The project/Library media is stored on an external drive. I had changed the name of the drive to edit another film (also on the same external drive) in the meanwhile. Today I rename the drive to the original name of last spring. But when I open the Library nothing is linked. I double-check the Storage Locations (a Media folder on the external drive); they seem to be as they were last spring.
So maybe changing the drive name back and forth did something?
I reset the Storage Locations path - everything is in external 'Media'. I close and reopen FCPX. Reload the Library. None of the clips are linked.
Do I need to 'Consolidate' the Media to get everything to relink up? I'm confused. It looks like Consolidating means putting the Media INTO the Library itself. Which I don't want.
Is there a way to relink all the media in the Library (meaning the Library-with-media-stored-on-external-drive) at once, rather than going in and tediously relinking everything project by project?
All ears ... Ben
