Thank you guys for all you input, found a solution.

So here was the problem. The footage I was working with was converted using toast and even though it had the same codec, ratio and frame rate it wasn’t enough.

If you want multicam you have log and capture your footage not convert it somewhere else. The reason I was converting somewhere else was because I didn’t have the AVCHD data on my Cannon card only the .MTS files that were saved to the desktop, this was causing the problem.

Thanks again.

It’s not giving me an option to select multiclip. But I did notice something.

These videos I’m working weren’t done using log and transfer. I’m working on another clip at the moment too that was done using log and transfer, I went into RT and there was a multiclip option.

The clips I’m working on were .MTS but I didn’t have the AVCHD so I had convert them in toast and then import them.

I’m thinking we could be onto something here.

Thanks Francis but it didn’t solve the problem. I’ve watching the Lynda.com explanation on multicam and I’m doing it the way they sugguest.

So I drag it into the timeline, double click and select open. I can tell it’s loaded right due to the sprockets in the viewer. Now in the viewer I see both cameras and I press play. The selected camera will appear in full view in the viewer making me unable to see the two cameras. Now when I press pause it goes back into multicam.

The only thing I noticed that’s different between the lynda.com video is he didn’t have to render but I do.
