Bug description:
Hi!

I have many removable usb-disks on which I have stored the footages grabbed from DV tapes. There exists a problem which is not a bug. I have started a new project and imported files from /media/disk. After a while working I save the project. A few days later I continue. This time my usb disk has been somewhere else and now I plug it in my laptop and open the project file. Yes, now my disk appears to be in /media/disk-1 but in my project file the path is still pointing to the /media/disk. This happens me all the time.

This is not a very important thing but anyway I have wondered if it would be worth implementing to insert a mechanism that helps to correct the path to the resources in only one maneuver instead of correcting the path one by one to each individual file. If it is worth that, I think that I have one solution to this, just adding a little piece of code and an entry to the Project files menu... I wonder if anyone else has ever faced this annoying situation.

Regards Timo M.
