Multicam template is 6h long

Question

I am working on a pretty extensive TV project with project with 20 cameras and 20 audio clips, 3 editors assistants, 6 editors and 24 hours of footage for about a month. This requires a MultiCam template. The template is supposed to be 1 second long because of some empty audio clips that is in there (these were added after the first time we had this problem so is probably not related) and it is whenever you check the duration, drag it onto a timeline or open it in the source monitor. The problem however arises when you use the Overwrite/Insert features, using these the template suddenly becomes 6 hours of empty space except for the first second. Is there any way to change this 6h duration without making a new template and redo everything we have done until now?

I am on 26.2.2 Build 3 on a 2023 M2 Max Mac Studio

BTW: “Mal” is norwegian for template

Thanks

I’m a bit confused by the question. A true Multicam Source Sequence length is dictated by what is in the multicam clip. What happens when you have multicam media inside your template ? (which I’m guessing you duplicate before putting media into it).

Since a true Multicam Source Sequence is usually created after some kind of sync operation, how you are syncing media that goes into the template?
