Recognizing Soft-Imported Clips
 
 
 

Soft-imported clips on the Desktop or in the clip library display an icon in the lower-right corner of the clip. The type of indicator depends on whether the clip is a hybrid clip or a completely soft-imported clip. A hybrid clip has some frames that are soft-imported and some that are not, or it may consist of multiple soft-imported sources of different formats.

Alt-clicking the clip displays an overlay that includes the soft-imported source path.
