Here's the way forward:
■
1
Capture all of the footage.
■
2
Once captured, run all of the footage
through DV Start/Stop Detect (found
under the Mark Menu).
■
3
Once your footage has been processed by
the DV Start/Stop Detect facility, click the
triangle next to the clip to reveal a list
showing every time the camera operator
has hit the record button ('buttoned'
on or off). If you are dealing with 4 to
10 times or less, no problem. If you are
dealing with 50 or a 100 separate times
then you have your work cut out for
you. Never-the-less it can be done.

Watch through your material and
identify corresponding angles which
exist on the separate tapes and where
the stop-starts take place. For example,
you may have two cameras: one has
the first 5 minutes of a performance
and the other has the first 8 minutes.
You can then sync up the first 5 minutes
as a two camera shoot. The first camera
'buttoned' on again 10 minutes into
the performance and then cut at
23 minutes. The other camera filmed
continuous. So then you have ingredients
needed to make another Multiclip.
It is simply a matter of marking an 'in' point;
marking an 'out' point (if you wish) and then
highlighting the clips and invoking the Make
Multiclip command.
