Plural Eyes
I just bought Plural Eyes, it’s a really useful stuff but it always affects whole timeline. Is it possible to use Plural Eyes on a certain area of timeline only?

I don’t think so, but why not sync first, then create a new track from that sync’ed footage?

I have a big project and the clips set chronogically on timeline. When I sync with Plural, it doess the job, but it mixes them chaotically. There is an option concerning chronology in Plural Eyes but it doesn’t help.

OK it dit it properly now. I just didn’t put the clips chronogically on timeline.

It’s always best to keep things simple by copying just the section you want to sync using just the clips pertaining to that sync. I typically have multiple locations with multiple cameras and external audio. So I cut/paste what I need to a new project, run PluralEyes, then copy/paste back to the original project with the sync’ed clips. I have noticed that PluralEyes can be inconsistent, working great with some clips and totally not figuring out other clips. I always use sequential and “try realy hard”.

Another thing that helps, at least for a new project. I always record an entire event with a digital recorder (Tascam DR-1 or Zoom H4n), start to finish. With that, I’m free to start and stop cameras a needed, without worrying too much about being able to sync up. I actually started this before using Plural Eyes, but PE does seem to function pretty well, this way, no scrambling of the clip order.
