Answers.Text: When I do event recording, there's an audio track that runs through the entire event.  That long-running track provides a timecode reference against which the video clips can be placed.  Resolve is also not exactly happy to merely place clips in space against an abstract timeline that starts at 00:00:00:00 and runs through 23:59:59:23 (or whatever).

Title: How to distribute multiple clips on the timeline, by Date and the time of the first one?

ThreadText: # How to distribute multiple clips on the timeline, by Date and the time of the first one?
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2019-08-27)
  
  I have an existing project in Adobe Premiere 2017 and I would like to import multiple clips in it.
  
  I already have the primary camera in sync with the Audio, and I would like to bring the secondary camera consisting of multiple clips which are not continous (there are time gaps between them).
  
  By knowing that the video `123.MOV` created at `1:39 PM` should be at minute `7:55` on my timeline, and after making sure it is in sync with the audio, I want the other ones to be set in sync as well, adding the timestamps between the `Created Date` on the timeline.
  
  I am not sure if Timecode helps here, but I am wondering if there is a way to **import them in the project with the time gaps between them** and then I will be able to select them all and sync them at once.
  
  How can I do that?
