Activity Forums Apple Final Cut Pro Legacy Multi-clip question

  • Multi-clip question

    Posted by Daniel Schultz on March 9, 2010 at 8:16 pm

    I did some cuts on a multi-clip in the timeline…used the razor blade and cut pieces out to do some rough editing. Now I seem have lost the ability to see both camera angles in the viewer.

    Am I doing something wrong? Is there a quick/easy way to get the multiple-camera-angles back?

    Thanks in advance.

    Do you have your sync set to “open”?

    Yes. I double-clicked on the clip in the timeline to bring it into the viewer. Then select “open.” I click back to the timline.

    Then both angles DO show up in the viewer. But then when play the clip, as soon as the clip is playing, I lose both angles in the viewer and it goes back to showing only the one angle.

    I’m probably doing something stupid, right?

    Sounds like the clips got rendered. Click the green visibility button on the left off and on that that clears the render and it should keep the 2 up in the viewer.

    I always have to remember to turn off auto-render in prefs when working on multi-cam.

    Dont do that. Just park your playhead over the clip, then select “open” in the viewer.

    Worked like a charm.

    Thanks, Michael!
