Media

The Media menu gives access to the following actions:

• Rescan media: Scans the Media List panel and checks for a difference in date and/or file size with the media on the hard drive. Regenerates cache for all files with newer versions.
• Force rescan media(slow): Forces the regeneration of all cache files for all media regardless of date/size.
• Select unused media: Select all media that are not used in the project. They can then be easily removed from the project.
• Flatten timeline…: Open a popup menu to launch the rendering of a part of a timeline and create a new media with the result of the rendering.
  The rendering is done in the Kinetic VNodes, not in Kinetic Designer.
• Tag media not in show: Tag unused media by adding the prefix ##old## in the filename of all media in your Kinetic Designer hard drive.
  You then can search for ##old## in your windows explorer and remove all media with this tag.
  It’s a convenient way to remove unused media in your hard drive.
• Undo tag media not in show: Remove the tag ##old## from the filename of the media in your Kinetic Designer hard drive.

*Tip: We highly recommend you always organize your project with a root folder on your data hard drive.
It is good practice to import media that are either in the root folder or of a subfolder.
