Overlapping Time Code…
I have a 4 hour event that I captured onto 5 DVCPRO tapes. I had 2 record decks with locked time code. I have now captured the footage and am getting ready to do some editing.
Is there an easy way to take the 5 clips that I have captured and line them up? The time code overlaps by about 2 minutes on each tape. thanks in advance.

If they’ve all got locked code that overlaps by two minutes on each tape, why do you need to line them up? The TC should be all you need to “match” from one tape to the next tape, right? There should be no need to use waveform matching or other means if the TC is locked and accurate on all tapes.
If all you want to do is line them up so that you can view the entire event without a break, just edit all the tapes into a master sequence, making sure you matchframe from the previous tape to the next tape, etc.
