Multi Cam Mode
Note Clip and track operations are the same in multi cam mode as they are in
normal more; however; keyboard shortcut keys differ.
Defining Multi Cam Sync Point for Placing Clips
The selected sync point determines how clips are placed on the Timeline
when in multi cam mode.
To define a multi cam sync point, and place clips follow these steps:
1. Select Mode>Sync point>{desired sync point} from the Preview
window menu bar. Sync point selections shown in the menu in
Figure 523 are explained below.

Asynchronous
Place clips based on the Timeline cursor position on the selected track.
Clips are placed based on the Asset Bin sorting order.
Timecode
Place clips on each track based on the clip start timecode. If no timecode is
set for a particular clip, 00:00:00;00 is used to place the clip.
Note Even if clips have different starting timecodes, EDIUS will try to align clips in
the camera tracks so that matching timecode sections appear in sync.
Rec Time
Place clips on tracks based on the recorded time (timecode) of each clip. If
no start timecode is set for a clip, 00:00:00 is used as the recorded time.
Note Recorded time is not affected by the recorded date. For example, a clip
recorded at 02:30:00 PM on September 10 2008 has an earlier Rec Time than
a clip recorded at 04:45:00 PM on August 10 2008.
