All my media is offline when I use another computer
Someone I work with created a Wirecast project at the office. He saved it to Dropbox and we needed to open it on a different machine in the same office.
When we opened it, everything was offline. It appears that the files need absolute paths instead of relative. Is this the case?
is there a way to make it smoother so my coworker doesn’t have to manually connect 200+ files again?
thanks!

Ideally, we should have an easy relink function possibly using relative paths or, otherwise, a way to create a document package.
Please fill out the form and make the feature request explaining your workflow situation as you did above.

CraigS will do. I'm surprised I didn't find much info or discussion around this. If someone's machine crashed and they reinstalled the OS, and the Wirecast project was in a different folder or their username was different than the original computer, everything would also have to be reconnected manually. I assumed I'd have found others with this problem.
Putting in a feature request now.

Russell Anderson People do mention that re-linking assets, when needed, can certainly be a chore. Given the way most people use Wirecast usually, the machine and assets are dedicated. It does come up but not frequently though.

Is there a voting part in this? I have some projects where I need to move to another computer. I hope there's a relink function same as Adobe Premiere's.

Certainly go to that thread, vote for it, and add any details on how you would like it to work as per the discussion in that thread.
