If I have not yet saved a project, the folder used for imported media items is the one specified as the Default Recording Path (in Preferences
>> Audio >> Recording). I have defined a relative folder ("media") in Project Settings but this is not used.
I would like to be able to specify a different folder for media items to be used before a project is saved.
After I have saved a project it's all OK; this is when I noodling around.

I tried exactly the same (even the same dir name!) but no effect, as you say. Now I always start by saving a new project, before even recording anything...
