Enhancement: Resolve load clip as managed item in MediaPool instead of in Timeline #5680

Closed BigRoy closed 3 months ago

BigRoy commented 1 year ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

Please describe the feature you have in mind and explain what the current shortcomings are?

Currently the Clip Loader tags the Timeline clip as managed container whereas it might make more sense to instead tag the Item in the media pool. By doing so it would allow just dragging the clip from the media pool to behave as if it is the managed clip as well instead of always have to do "load" via the Loader to add a copy of it into your timeline,

How would you imagine the implementation of the feature?

Tag and list the containers from MediaPool items instead of from the active/current Timeline.

Are there any labels you wish to add?

Describe alternatives you've considered:

I believe I once prototyped a version here: https://github.com/ynput/OpenPype/pull/4976

This was implemented in AYON here: https://github.com/ynput/ayon-core/pull/140 And now exists in ayon-resolve.
