I agree completely with avoiding multiclips whenever possible. If it’s a 2 camera shoot, use the method described using two video tracks, razor blading, and disabling the top track.

I’ve recently had to edit a 6 camera shoot and reluctantly used multiclips. Once the media was moved from the assistant’s station to the editor’s and reconnected they were out of sync. But they seemed to have somehow defaulted to using the first frame of the media as their sync point. My workaround attempt for next time would be to try and capture the media from the same TC start point. I don’t know if it will work, but maybe it will.

An “after-the-fact” workaround I used once I started cutting with the producer and discovered the clips had lost their sync (again) was to make all NEW multiclips. I then used the TC display in the canvas to manually type in the TC for the spot I was looking for in the new multiclip in the viewer.
