Multicam Match Frame
Having a problem with multicam in my sequence. We had an assistant put all the angles together in a multicam and now as I am editing I am trying to do a multicam match frame (which I mapped to my keyboard) but nothing happens. When I double click on the clip from my timeline to bring it into the viewer, I can see both clips but when I click to the B Cam, the screen goes black and the clip is no longer in the viewer.
I have reset my preferences twice and nothing has changed.
Any ideas?

mmmm try turning on all the autoselect lights in the video track. Guessing here, but might be the deal that is driving you nuts.

Unfortunately this is not the issue.
I was able to map “match multiclip frame” to the button bar and it would reveal a frame, but it was not the correct frame as where the playhead was parked. Further still, I mapped reveal master multiclip and when opening from the browser, it seems to be a totally different clip then the match multiclip that loads into the viewer.

If you perform a match frame it will open the current angle in the viewer. Isn’t that what’s happening?
Can you use the exact term of the button you mapped? Multicam isn’t correct anyway..
The only button i can find that sounds close is “Reveal master Multiclip” which does work here OK. It selects the multiclip in the Browser.

I found this in the manual:
Choose View > Show Multiclip Angles, so that there’s a checkmark next to it.
Note: If no sequence is open, choosing the Show Multiclip Angles option has no effect. In this case, you always see the Viewer on the external video monitor.
Is this what you’ve mapped?
