I came up with a workaround on the merged clips source settings for now.

1. This works best with single video track.
2. Export an EDL of your sequence, make sure the “use source file name” is checked.
3. Import that EDL back into the project, it will import a folder into your project bin, open up the sequence inside
4. All footage should be offline at this point, however the EDL pulled clips by their source file names, so after re-linking to the original media, highlight all clips on timeline, right-click – source settings, and voila

Hopefully this helps somebody,

Tim you would think that it would, but unfortunately it doesn’t update on the merged clip..:(

Tim,

Great reply! Thank you so much for your time.

I started organizing and syncing everything and I went with the 1080 timeline option. It’s good to know that I was pretty much on track with the approach.

I am dealing with some additional issues now, mostly since there was no on board scratch audio recorded, I had to sync manually and use “merged clips”.

The headache begins Everytime I either insert or overwrite a merged clip into the timeline from the source monitor, it un-links them. Not a biggie, just a hassle.

The other issue is a bit more serious though, because i cannot access the “source settings” through the merged clips. Which hinders the workflow when we go to color (wanted to be in RedLog color space)….

Maybe Adobe will release an update with that feature supported. We can only hope….
