Importing Media

You can import video and audio files into your case.

 

There are two ways to import media. You can either drag and drop folders and files directly into a folder in the Media area, or you can run the Media Import Wizard, which is available from FILE > Info > Import or from HOME > Import.

 

If you import folders of media items, Sanction creates new folders in the Media tree that mirror those you import.
