Clips can now be edited directly from the Media Pool into a timeline, such that each clip’s source timecode is aligned with an identical record timecode value in the Timeline. This can be useful for long form multi-camera events, like weddings or concerts, where all cameras are linked by the same timecode to ensure all edits are perfectly synced. This function matches the Source Overwrite edit on the Cut page.
