EDIUS for AvID EDItorS
Working with the Asset Bin
www.grassvalley.com
Media composer treats every bin as a separate file on your hard drive. All eDiUS bins are incorporated into a single eDiUS project
file, making organization a little simpler.
When you first create a project, you will have just one bin folder, called “root.” this is the start of your media organization. create a
subfolder by right-clicking on the folder list and choosing new Folder.
the Asset Bin is similar to the Media composer project
Window.
it can contain multiple bins and has shortcut buttons for
importing media and generating media like color mattes.
the Asset Bin is designed like an Windows explorer window.
it has folders, rather than bins, on the left with their contents
displayed on the right.
You can move folders around just like desktop folders, by dragging and dropping.
Just as with Media composer, you can create multiple copies of clips that link to the
same media file. in fact, you can use regular copy and paste commands, including
ctRl-c and ctRl-V to make duplicates of clips.
eDiUS has a unique search feature that creates persis-
tent Search results folders. to access this feature:
