Match Frame to Source clip

[John Grote, jr.]

Good day,

You need to double click the freeze frame so it loads in your source window, then use the match frame to find your original source clip.

Hi
I tried that already and nothing happened.
Did you actually try this and it worked?
Or you think that is what should work?
I know that other applications do it this way!

[Wes Plate]

I don’t think there’s a way.

Thanks Wes
I beta tested the last version of your software and I want to thank you again for the opportunity.
Going back to the match frame problem, I think the only way is to use the clip name for the freeze which includes the time code and do it manually!
Not so good!

Because a freeze frame can be made up of multiple layers composited together there is no way for the application to call up a source file.

All the best,

Tom

From what I can remember. when you make a freeze frame th eclip name that appears in the time line or viewer has the timecode ammended to it so if the original clip name is ” My Clip” the frezze frame would be “MyClip 3:05:15:05”

Hope this helps

Yeah, well all I can say is it’s not an Avid.
There are alot of things that is should do, but doesn’t.
