Reverse Match Frame not finding the frame in any other/duplicate clip

Suppose I've clip-1 loaded in timeline and I command 'Match Frame' from Source Panel and immediately the clip is loaded in Source Monitor and exact frame located.

Now I load a duplicate copy of the same clip, Clip-1B into timeline (into the same sequence or other sequence in both cases same result), and highlight Src Pnl and command 'Reverse Match Frame'. But it doesn't find the desired frame in this 'Clip-1B' on timeline. If I load the clip1 on the sequence, then 'Reverse Match Frame' works and brings the playhead/cti on that very frame in Tline. But not on the Clip1-b.

Why, isn't this command meant to find the exact same frame in different/other/duplicate clips?

Both Match Frame and Reverse Match Frame will only locate the same Project instance of the clip, the same as if you choose Reveal in Project.

If you have two different Project clips with the same media and want to identify the frames from this media in the timeline, drag one of the clips into your timeline. Then click the Timeline Display Settings wrench and turn on Show Duplicate Frame Markers. This will identify duplicate frames based on the media path, not the Project clip.

Cheers,

Participating Frequently

1. I've created the copy of the clip in the same project, even in same bin.

2. If I turn on the option 'show duplicate frame markers' in the tl wrench menu, then both these clips do show blue horizontal line to show that both are having same video/media.

3. If I right click any of the two media clips in tl> reveal in the project, then the respective media clip gets highlighted in the project bin.

Hope I'm providing right information. I've researched many hours googling on this problem without any success.

Thanks for your explanation.

But my scene seems to be a bit different, if I'm not mistaken.

Seq1 has clip1 loaded in it. And I command match frame. And frame is matched in the source monitor.

Then I open another seq which has clip 1b on it (1b is the exact copy of the clip1 and has been created from the same master clip). And I highlight source monitor and command reverse match frame (I expect to go to same frame in clip 1b).

Isn't this possible? Is there any other way to locate same frame in two diff clips.

I might be unclear what you mean by "Clip 1b was created from the same masterclip"?

Do you mean you loaded Clip1 in the Source Monitor and then added that to another sequence?
