You're right about it being a subclip. That's correct. The reason is that the subclip is only the length of the shortest element of the auto-sync, but of course, by its very nature, one of the clips is going to be longer than the other…. usually the audio is started WAY earlier than the video and it usually runs longer than the video. So the subclip is JUST the length of the video in that case. Working on a feature last year, I did have some cases where the audio department actually cut off the audio before the cameras stopped rolling. In those cases, if I remember correctly, the end of the video got cut off in the subclip, which was sometimes an issue, so you could match clip the auto synced subclip back to the master camera shot and pull the rest of the video that you needed.

When AutoSyncing, it creates a Subclip.Subclip in my mind indicates that it's a portion of a longer clip (which in this case it's not, right?).While there is likely some logic here that I'm missing,I think, that a Master Clip should be created instead.And, since there might be situations where it'd be helpful to know that it's a product of AutoSyncing,then the clip icon could include the letter "A" or a dot (or something) inside the Master Clip icon.
