Re: [Avid-L2] Artful way to combine Pluraleyes workflow with grouping?

So you have ACam on V1, and BCam on V2, synced in your sequence?

Park the playhead anywhere the clips overlap in your sequence. Activate
track V2 and match-frame to the BCam source clip, which will set an
in-point in the source. Without changing location in your sequence,
deactivate V2, activate V1 and matchfame to the ACam, which will set an
in-point at the corresponding location in that source.

Select both ACam and BCam clips that matchframe has located. They will
need to be in the same bin, so either move them or copy them to a single
bin. Select both clips and group by in-point.
