Re: Multiclips lose sync when reconnecting

If he says the feature works, then it does.

Well, actually, no it doesn't. Repeat, if all clips have identical timecode (i.e. time of day), then you may not see this problem. That does not mean multiclip works! That means it will work for some people who only shoot this way. Clearly multiclip is supposed to work for cameras with different timecode!!!
Repeat: Multiclip does not work.

Just because other forums are full of people who can't get it to work doesn't mean the feature itself doesn't work. It means there could be a lot of people out there who have not taken the time to properly educate themselves on how to use the multiclip workflow.

Sigh. It's just a computer program, don't feel emotionally attached to it.

I'll say it again: Clips shift sync (by offset between inpoints and timecode). This is a repeatable bug and a sequence with this problem has been sent to Apple by the Apple certified support crew. It's not about workflow, it's about FCP not working properly.!!!! I know it, the twenty other editors know about it, and Apple know about it. You should tell them that it's all okay, I'm sure they'd like to know.

Whether they will do anything about it is anyone's guess. But it remains, multiclip is a dog!!!! If you have this problem, let them know; it is not you, it is the software.
