Hi,

Quick one. Upon launching PD13, I would like to have the layout include some clips in the Media Room that I use over and over again. How can I accomplish this task? Thanks in advance.

PS, just starting using 13. Sure is more robust than 7 or 8. I can now load mpg4 files and edit with them. Previously I always had to downconvert to mpg2. Ugh!

Hi micncue,
I would made a project containing what you want to start with.
Then open it and 'save as' the name of your new project.

I completely agree with Anja's suggestion, and you'll just need to make sure the "Automatically load the last project..." box is checked on the Preferences|Project tab:

Before you close PD, you'll want to re-open your original "template" project, and you can use the "Recent Files >" option under the File menu to easily find it. That also works if you forget to do that before closing PD and your previous project opens up next time
