Can’t sync multi-cam project.

[Herb Sevush]

Auxilary timecode is just that, alternate timecode that can used by multi-cam to sync clips. To activate it highlight a clip, hit Modify / Timecode and you’ll see where you can change the actual timecode of a clip or else enter up to 2 different Aux timecodes. This works very well for syncing clips with different timecodes.

Grady, if you capture the footage properly, I think your problems will go away. Capturing as a non controllable allows for many more variations than a true log an capture. You have to log enough pre and post roll to capture the tape properly, that means at least 5 seconds before and after each tc break. It sucks, but thems the breaks. Pun absolutely intended.

Jeremy,
Thank you. So far that is what the problem was. I did a bit of tweeking of settings and did a batch capture and so far vids are syncing. (minus a drop-out or two on a clip, hopefully I can just re-capture again) The XL2 did need a head cleaning prior to project. Maybe wasn’t 100%.
Well, I’m learning everyday with this thing they call technology, so thanks for your help. Thank you to the others for the tips, as well.

You should be able to recapture the dropout areas. Now that you have properly captured footage with tc, this should be very easy.
