Media and Project Management
 Original: This bar shows the total disk space used by the media files associated with
your current selection. This bar may be segmented if the media referenced by the
selected items is found on multiple disks.
 Modified: This bar displays the total disk space that will be used by the same items
after the Media Manager processes the media files. If you’re recompressing or
deleting unused media, the Modified bar is often shorter, so you can see how much
disk space the operation will save.
When you move the pointer over each section of the bar graph, a description appears
that displays the size, location, and duration of the media represented by that section.
Different colored segments represent different types of media, with media files
represented by green segments and render files represented by blue.
