If you have several media files loaded into the Resources window of one instance of CINELERRA-GG and want to load some of the same ones into another instance or just want a listing to save in a file for later use, you can do this with these set of steps:
Copy or paste a list of files in the Media Resources window:
Obviously this Paste file list feature means you can create a list of files outside of CINELERRA-GG using an editor, wipe the names, and then use Paste file list to load them into the media Resources window.
It is important to note that in the steps above, the Operating System cut and paste capabilities are in use for steps 4 and 6 as opposed to CINELERRA-GG’s c/v shortcuts. Since the procedure varies among the distros, you will have to adapt to your specific one. For example, a usage for ubuntu consists of:
In the Figure 2.35Example of copy file list, one instance of CINELERRA-GG has 3 items in the Media area highlighted that were copied to the file list. Note how it includes the full pathname.
In this screenshot on another instance of CINELERRA-GG, there are only 2 items in the media but the Paste file list box is ready to have the items inserted via the standard text box paste method. When that is done, the additional 6 media files will be available on this other instance too.
