Premiere Pro CC Multicam - 2 camera angles being split into multiple tracks

The only way I found to get around it is to use PluralEyes by Red Giant. Works as the PP one should. It treats camera files on the same track as the same camera.

I would love this to be a new feature. Every demo and tutorial I see completely forgoes this extremely important aspect of MC workflow - multiple files creating separate angles.

Just my 2 cents worth. It seems that this is still an issue, where multiple takes are each put onto separate video changes for a multicam sequence.

I don't see this as a massive issue though, because the footage doesn't overlap - so pushing the separate takes down onto 2 video tracks is quick - especially if you use some keyboard shortcuts:

1) use the select tool (V) to select a track to move

2) ALT+DownArrow will move the clip down to the track below it.

Even with a large number of takes, this is quick to do.

It would be ideal if Premiere could recognise when footage is all from the same camera and align them all on the same track - however, this is only a minor inconvenience.

I know this is a rather old post, but have been having a play with multi cam for a while and watching a few videos so help this helps.

What I do to get rid of extra cameras that are generated with each new multicam process.

The process im mentioning is very briefly mentioned in this clip : Adobe Premiere Pro CC Tutorial | Performing Multi-Camera Editing - YouTube

Once I have made my multicam source file.

Drag to new sequence icon (similar to what is done with a clip and want to make a quick sequence from clips properties.)

You will have the green nested footage (this will have multicam enabled by default.

Ctrl + Double Left click the green bar. This reveals all the clips and audio.

Arrange the clips onto which ever video layer you want (each representing a Camera)

Double click the the sequence created to reset the sequence to have the green bar for editing but with only 2-3 cameras as desired and not the 12 you dread.

First time poster, sorry if not overly clear.

Yeah - this is terrible that Premiere can't put all clips from the same camera on the same track. FCP would actually do this, and that version 7 is how many years old?

I'm working on a golf shoot. 9 camera hitting start and stop all day on different part of the course. We're talking 700-800 clips. All timecode is synced. Unbelievable that I can't just select them all and hope to get them on a single track. I hope this becomes an option. It can't be that difficult to implement.

in Premiere Pro CC, multicam creation can only be exectued via the browser, not the timeline.

That is not true.  The original (and still best, I think) method of creating a multicam sequence still works just fine.

1. Create a sequence and add your clips.

2. Manually sync all clips.

3. Create a second sequence, and nest the first into it.

4. Right click that nested sequence and Enable Multicam.
