Hold down the option key while dragging a video file onto the timeline, or bin to bypass the video import dialog in Pro Tools and automatically accept the defaults. This can be very handy when importing lots of video files.
Note: This only works from a digibase browser. ie: Workspace or Project browser. While not quite as handy, it’s still a time saver. Sorry for the confusion!
