guilty your honor. You can try using the Alt modifier while pressing the 9 or 0 key on main keyboard. That should do it. And you are right- there’s
no track SOLO shortcut. (they make you Ctrl + click the speaker icon). -
Yes there is a shortcut to do that.

Try adding the default color effect onto any clips which have copyguard.
This solved a similar problem for me recently when trying to output a timeline via firewire into a dsr-45. That same dsr45 was initially used to record that short sample of copyguarded footage from dvd (via s-video). During transfer, the dsr45 presented warnings, yet the footage looping thru the dsr-45 and into avid via firewire, captured nicely into the avid and looked fine in the Composer window/Timeline– as was well until I tried a digital cut.
A videwomixdown didn’t work– so I used a color effect and was successful.

Thanks Michael. They did a nice job on the Dylan film, too.

I heard they give employees one feature request every year!

But there are no slip keys in Xpro 4.6- just slip trim mode (without even a keyboard shortcut.)
Actually, the GANG feature makes it even easier to correct this sync problem– no need to matchframe each shot as I described, just use Replace after ganging Composer to Source group clip. Use CTRL+G (“Find Again”) to hop from one out-of-sync shot to next.

You can Matchframe each instance of that shot on the timeline and then with your Source monitor now active, press Enter having previously typed either +5 or -5 into the numeric keypad. Then press Replace and you are back in sync. Make sure you have just the Video tracks hi-lighted.

In a situation like this I would try turning OFF the TC (timecode) button in the Record tool to see if you can get a clean capture. If that works– then just clone the problem tape and try again with the clone.
If it’s a multicam project and you need the original TC, all is not lost thanks to the “Group by Mark-In” feature.
