Has this been confirmed as a FCP 7 bug? I’m having similar issues, but not sure if it’s me or a bug.
Basically when I play my multiclip sequence in the timeline with Sync set to Open, clicking on a new angle simply stops playback. But if I go to the middle of the sequence, start playing it in the timeline, then click on an angle, it works as expected.
Then I go back to the very beginning of the sequence (which only has the single multiclip in it), and now it works.
When I cut the clip out of the sequence and then re-add it from the viewer (via option-drag), I can get this behavior again. I have no timeline in/out points.
It’s driving me a bit crazy, but if Apple has recognized it as a bug I can work around it for now.
Thx,
Tac
