Here’s an enlargement of the clip repetitions and the message I got.

that’s correct….
because the clip is used in a sequence…as indicated by usage column…

Alex,
Yes, I performed your test. It didn’t happen again. I even tried a 3rd sequence. It still didn’t happen.
I guess it’s just one of those unsolved mysteries. Time to move on.
If it happens again, I’ll be posting.Thanks for your help.

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to automatically replace all the usages of the duplicate clips with the original clips? I’m coming late to the party, I know, but I’ve got a project that has a significant number of these clips — we’ve figured out how to prevent them happening in the future, but I’d like to slim down the project file size if I can…
Many thanks in advance!
Peace & respect,

I want to tidy my project. I sorted clips by “Video Usage”. Several clips did not have any use. When I select them and press Delete” I get a warning. (see pic1) And I continue, because I would like to trust the “Video Usage” information. But some clips still are deleted form an open sequence. (see pic 2) Seems not at all the behavior I expected. Note that I’m using CC2015.2.
And I still would like to make all instances of a clip in bin just point to one master instance. I didn’t find that ability in 2015.3. Maybe I missed it, or there’s a workaround.

As well as a ‘Video Usage’ column there is also an ‘Audio Usage’ column. It looks like it is just the audio that has been deleted from the timeline so I suspect that one copy of the clip has been used to edit in the video and another to edit in the audio. So the clip that has it’s audio used in the timeline wont have any video usage, but it will show up in the audio usage column.
How did you come to have more than one copy of a clip in the bin?
