(Mac) Multi-camera source sequence - add video track after creation

Adobe Premiere Pro (Beta) v24.2.0 on the Mac. I have a multi-camera source sequence which I've edited and  later realized that one of the video tracks has framerate sync issues with the other tracks. I redid the transcode and would like to add the newly fixed video track to it. I glanced over the Adobe Premiere Pro User Guide | Multi-camera editing workflow but could not find out info about adding a video track after creating it. I searched the Adobe Community forums and found a post: Add New Clip to multi-camera source Sequence Editing. But the instructions are for Windows and despite trying Ctrl, Option or Cmd keys and double clicking it hasn't been working for me. Any suggestions? Thank you.

    The instructions about the modifier keys was only about opening the source multi-clip sequence. Is this something you're having trouble doing? If so, then you can hold Ctrl or Cmd to double-click a multi-clip in your Timeline or Project panel to open the source sequence, but adding a new angle is as simple as adding a new Video track inside that sequence and dropping in your video. Going back to your editing sequence will immediately show your new angle in the Multi-Camera View.

      davidarbor,

      Greatly appreciate your explanation. It worked for me. I wish this was made clearer in Adobe's User Guide. Well, good thing that I tried the Adobe Community forum.

      Glad that helped! Multi-cam editing and setup has always been a challenging area. Things like mixing camera and audio formats and routing audio tracks so waveforms properly pass through to your editing sequence can be quite the pain.
