Thanks, I’ll try that.

I’m editing a concert video, with lots of small clips from A LOT of different sources. It’s like playing with a puzzle. More clips are coming in continously, and I need to be able to remove clips (or part of clips) if better footage surfaces. I’s all synched to a separate audio source, and that’s why I prefer to have the clips on the same track. I tried to have clips from each source on it’s own track, but having 25 different sources (and counting) it really became a total mess.
Now I put new clips on a new track and synch it to the audio source, then matches the new footage to the existing to find the best. If the new one is better, then I (cut &) move it to the main track. I don’t want to cut the existing footage on the main track, because I might change my mind later and want to switch back.
