Just started to use daVinci Resolve (free version) for video editing, primarily for youtube videos.
Whilst I am getting on pretty well and have managed to process and save a number of videos I have come across a problem that has me stumped.
Going back to videos already completed, almost all of the clips and images are showing as 'Media Offline' with a red triangle.
I've done a Google search which hasn't helped ... one says select all clips from the Media Pool and right click on on to 'Locate' but when I do that the multiple selection goes and it just highlights the single image/clip and doesn't offer the dropdown box suggested.
In short, how do I get to revise a rendered video if I cannot locate the media?
 
Generally this has popped up for me when I've moved media or I've updated DaVinci Resolve to a newer version. I've then had to relink my files in a similar way to the one you describe. I don't remember the exact process but this time when I upgraded to v19 it seemed to intelligently relink everything in the project I was working on.

A video similar to this helped me last time.

Well the video helped indirectly!
Playing it suddenly gave me the option to relink when I right clocked, however that didn't work.
What did work was checking the folder and re-selecting the exact same folder and voila, there they were in the Timeline! :thinking:

Good news! Glad it helped you out.
