Question

Relocking video and audio

I have a timeline with over 2 and a half hours of testimonlal clips. For some reason, by my own doing or application error, all of these clips keep getting unlocked separating the audio from the video. To repair this I have to relock each clip individual clip. Does anyone have a shortcut or trick to relocking all of these clips in one keystroke?

When i tried to reproduce this i found that it´s easy to select all clips and right click on them and choose Unlink to unlink the video from the audio, in one go for all selected files. But i cannot do the opposite, iow selecting all clips and select Link to link all clips, not by mouse nor by a keyboard shortcut.

 

It is possible to set a shortcut to Clip > Link but then it´s only possible to link one clip at a time, so not ideal.

Yeah, this build is totally messed up. I click on a clip and it unlocks. I stretch it out and it only stretches the video. I click on the same clip again and it's relocked. I clip a different clip and come back to that clip and relock it and it shows the red numbers saying it's unsynched by 9 frames. Please fix this build. Making this project impossible. I feel like I am flying across the ocean with the engines not working.

Plus watching the clips they all seem just a little bit out of synch. I have transcoded and cut down this 2 and a half hour stringout. I got to make do and eyeball stuff. I cannot blow it up and start over.
