Finding Timeline Clips in the Media Pool

From time to time, you’ll find yourself wanting to find the source clip in the Media Pool that corresponds to a clip in the Timeline. For example, you might want to go back to a part of an interview clip you’ve already used to find another phrase on the same topic.


To find a timeline clip in the Media Pool:

— Right-click a clip in the Timeline, and choose Find in Media Pool from the contextual menu.

The corresponding clip is selected in the Media Pool, which scrolls to show that clip, if necessary.
