    If I understand you correctly...

    Avid has a function for this ‘Autosequence’ which is very useful when syncing cameras that have free running, but non-synchronised, timecode.

    put a feature request in (‘Autosequence like avid’) at Adobe.com/go/wish

    in the meantime you could use the avid trial to make your assembly then send to PP as an AAF, possibly via Resolve.

    or program a macro, having edited first clip in sequence, and assuming all clips are in one bin & sorted by timecode:

    1. Match frame

    2. Reveal in project

    3. Arrow down to next clip

    4. Load in source monitor

    5. Clear in & out

    6. Go to start

    7. Tab to timecode

    8. Copy timecode

    9. Switch to program

    10. Tab to timecode

    11. Paste

    12. Overwrite

    then repeat... good luck
