Playing back timeline in C-sort mode?

[Charlie Edison]

True C-mode with reel numbers doesn’t work properly,
The work around is in the conform page right click on your session and choose “create session with handles” (handles being zero) this will give you a true C-mode sort!

Hands up who would like the C-mode function fixed where the time line sorts first by reel number and then by timecode..

Me! – that’s 1

Try holding ‘Command’ and press the ‘page up’ and ‘page down’ buttons to toggle between A and C mode. That should do it.

Nice trick charlie !

yes +1 for a “sort by clip reel/name mode”…

Absolutely, gets my vote…
TC only is useless, I have like 80 days of shooting in this project.
Reel ID is MUST

That toggles between Record and Source, but for some reason, my AAF imports are still displayed with handles — ie I can’t see my original edit in any mode.

You mean “Old Ben”? Ben Kenobi?

I know you can switch the timeline sort to C-mode, as I already mentiones in my original post.

The problem I was asking about is that this mode is only useful for visually sorting the timeline, and not actually playing it back in c-mode.

This has been a huge oversight since the first build. I’ve been very frustrated with the lack of a true C-mode sort. Toggling the up/down arrow simply sorts in source code order, with NO source reel sorting. This makes it completely useless for most long form work.

True C-mode sorts the reel names first, then the source code, so all the clips from the same reel are lined up. This is imperative for correcting by reel first, then fine tuning by clip. In a Preconform workflow this is the only way to correct based on reels. Not having it is a huge disadvantage.

BMD, PLEASE FIX THIS!! Pleeeeease!
