Multicam problem -a bug?

We did a project with 2 cam (one tight, one wide), plus a sound guy who is recording on his own device. I imported all the footage and the sound. I created all the multicam files. It linked it up by cuts. So each cut is a multicam. I put all the multicam files on one timeline. So far everything works. I started editing. What is not good stay on V1 what is good goes on V2 and v3 and v4. Soon as I put cuts on other than v1 I seems to loose the multicam. I don't have access to both camera.... This is not normal, Help.

It's not a bug.  if you want to see the multicam for v2, you have to deselect v1 on the left.  if you want to see multicam on v3, you have to deselect v1 & v2.  That is how you can control/select individual multicams if you have them on several layers, otherwise PPro wouldn't know which multicam layer you wanted to control.  If you have v1, v2, v3, + selected like you have, it will only look at v1 layer.

It works that same way here also, on Win11-23H2, PP 25.2.0 b51.

That's the way I thought MC worked, the idea being it's on one track. I've always flattened that bit if I need it on another track.

I don't really understand this:

<<What is not good stay on V1 what is good goes on V2 and v3 and v4.>>
