I don't have an answer to your problem but have seen similar issues from time to time. Bouke at VideoToolshed has a QT Change program and a few other utilities that might allow you to add proper time code to you files. He has some designed to add time code to Go Pros and there are options to derive time code from the THM file for Go Pros that don't have real time code. I think it was somewhere around Go Pro 3s that their files started to a have some sort of real time code. The Videotoolshed utlilities are great especially because Bouke is very helpful. I honestly only use some of the basic functions but wish I would master some of the more interesting functions they offer.
Is there a particular reason you are worried about the time code currently associated with the clips? I'm assuming that each of the clips is starting with 00:00:00:00 so they don't have unique time codes. I don't know what the Go Pro Studio does about maintaining the original clip time code. I've seen some programs that lose the original time code so I wouldn't be surprised if that is happening. If you ama to the pre de fish eyed clips do they have unique time codes that make sense?
I think if you have already created your full rez master clips that have been de eyeed you should still be able to relink to them. Just because all the clips have a zero start time if they are ama'd properly and no tape name added they should still remain unique sources. It's not like the days of digitized tapes that had repeated sections of the same time code. Or am I wrong about this?

Any suggestions as to how to proceed? I've already done some editing with the files and would naturally prefer to save that work.Thanks!
