[Avid-L2] Commit Multicam changes clip?

 

I've been using commit multi cam for years without issue.  Today for some reason commit multicam actually changed a shot and it's timecode.  Very weird a shot went into a clip of the same shot with a motion effect, not a time warp.  The outgoing shot was supposed to continue just with the motion effect.  Using commit multi cam changed the clips timecode.  I went back to the original sequence and cut in just the motion effected clip without using commit multicam and the time code was correct but it wouldn't relink no matter what I did.  The motion effect did not offer the opportunity to promote to timewarp which was weird too.  Ultimately there was enough handle on the outgoing shot to just extend it so I don't see why the corrected clip wouldn't relink.  I even tried moving the motion effect completely and still it wouldn't relink.  Oh well it was the first time commit multi cam has done this to me.  I have had sequence that gave error if a
commited multi cam before opening the sequence that needed to be promoted.  Opening those sequences first to promote them then committing multi cam eliminated those errors.  Don't know about this one as I didn't have a chance to try.  Anybody else been bitten by commit multi cam?
