Managing Clips in Batch

You have several options for managing edits of Batch clips. You can have setups automatically saved to a clip library or to the Desktop. As well, you can send a copy of just the clips back to the Desktop.

If you have edited clips automatically saved to the clip library, by enabling Use Edited Library in the Preferences, the editing data is not saved in the setup itself, but rather as soft clips in the _Edited_ clip library which is created when you save the setup.

If you have edited clips automatically saved to the Desktop, by disabling Use Edited Library in the Preferences, you can either save the modified clip or a copy of the modified clip.

Saving to the Desktop is more convenient if you plan to continue editing the clip.

You set the option for saving edited clips before entering Batch. The setting remains in effect until the next time you start a Batch session.
