Lost the ability to copy and paste subclips between video files in Prelude

[peterq40907648]

Hi all,

I use Prelude to ingest and add metadata to multiple angles of a sports event.

I usually watch the master angle, then copy and paste all the subclips to the other angles, synced up by a comment which is the common starting point.

However, in the latest version of Prelude, I can't copy and paste between subclips anymore. I select all and hit copy, but can't paste into the same video file or another file.

I've tested it out on both PC and Mac and get the same issue (both up to date). 

Any ideas for solutions?

Hi peterq40907648,

Sorry for the problem.

Yeah.. I confirm there is an issue with this copy-paste workflow.

We will surely look into this.

Thanks for highlighting this. Customers' feedback is v important for us. Keep writing in case of any confusion.

Thanks,

I appreciate the reply, though I'm disappointed to learn that there's currently no solution. 

Praying for an update quickly because this feature is really necessary for my work, particularly, being able to comb through multiple angles of the same event quickly to find highlights.

Hi peterq40907648,

You can achieve this up to v extent with Unassociated Metadata panel.(from Window-->Unassociated Metadata)

-Just select the clip in project panel and right click-->Send to Unassociated Metadata

-Select the file from the left: All markers would be seen in the right pane.

-Select/open any other file in the Timeline where you would like to enter the markers from the previous file

-Select those markers which you would like to see in the opened clip from the Unassociated metadata

-Open Clip and markers will be visible in the new file

Although it would only allow a single entry of any marker in the new file. (Will throw error if done multiple times for the same marker in the window->Events panel)

I hope it help.

Thanks,

Mayank
