Additionally, new Gang context menus have been added to the Track and Group panes to help manage the tracks you are ganging or un-ganging.

- Bug Number: MCDEV-5384. Currently, when working with LongG media, you might see dropped frames when editing 4 streams.

The dropped frames usually display around the edit point (transition to a different stream).
