Hey there. 

 

I try to find a way to move a clip to its timecode.
So i want the clip to start at 00:00:13:08 in the timeline.
How can i do that? In the best case for multiple clips at the same time. 

Thanks a lot

Use Multicam:

It will allow you to syncronize clips by their timecode.

Ok i did some more research on this and Adobe Premiere is not possible to handle this problem properly.

I tried the Multical Feature but its not working.

Poor from Adobe and the concurence is ahead once more. 
Online are just workarounds over Davinci Resolve:

But that means one more transcoding, so a loss in time and image quality because the freee version is limited in resolution but probably the best choice.

If the clip is sitting at the start of the timeline, select it and and type on your keypad +13.08

Hi Meg and thank you for the idea.
To do it by hand doesn't fix my problem. I need a way to do that automated for many many clips.
I do record a band and all clips are lipsync recorded and have correct timecodes fit to the timeline.
Music starts at 00:00:00:00 and all clips match. 
Is there no way or shortcut just to move a clip to its timecode and not do that for every single clip by hand? 
Maybe some other ideas?
