Hello, I'm having trouble adding a clip to the start of my timeline. I don't want my original timeline markers to be thrown off. Is there a way to lock the timeline or have the markers readjust to the times so they stay at the start of the clips I want them to? Thanks.

If you use Clip Marker, they will stay and move with clip position when you add content at the start of timeline. If you've used Timeline Marker, they are set at a specific timeline timecode and will not move when you add content at the start of timeline, they will stay at the same timecode.

No PD20 automatic way of turning Timeline Markers to Clip Markers other than selecting each Timeline Marker and defining a Clip Marker for the associated clip at the same timeline location.

Thank you Jeff for the reply; How do I get clip markers instead then?

Have the timeline scrubber at desired location, right click on the clip and use the Clip Marker > Add Clip Marker...
