This will help you do numerous batch tasks, such as updating / loading all sidecars files, generating all the Merged Clips infos once (saved popup bug) and not later, initializing all the .BRAW clips Source Settings info in case you have lots of .BRAW and you want to avoid BRAW Studio Panel to initialize them later on etc.. Another practical use of this is to batch change Source Settings, for example now you are able to make exports with two different .BRAW color grade with only a few clicks, by storing the first color grade inside Custom A and the second Color Grade inside Custom B
- Prev And Next buttons are not disabled anymore when no clip is selected. They now select the first or last clip in the timeline in that case

- New button in the ToolBox tab to convert a BRAW Studio Project to a Blackmagic Design PrPro Plugin Project in case you rather need to work with the BMD Plugin and switch plugins. Note that the Source Settings params will not be translated, but the project should be stable. Never force convert a project ! Always use our conversion tools to be safe. BRAW Studio already supported converting from a BMD Project, so now it supports both ways
