About Managing Media on the Timeline
 
 
 

During the editing process, you can manage your timeline media in various ways as you process depending on your needs. For example, to free up space on the framestore, remove unused frames by consolidating timeline elements. Or, prevent intermediate renders from occurring while you work on the timeline by compacting effects.

For information on processing from the timeline, see Processing Soft Effects and Batch FX. For information on processing Batch FX from the desktop, see Processing Clips and Proxies.
