Hi Jbowdach,

I am facing the same issues with having to create as many bins as there are files. That means if I press start and stop 100 times for different takes, I need to create 100 bins in Resolve which is ridiculous. I also face audio syncing issues. I shoot exclusively on a 5d Mkii .MLV format with sound. Found out that you cannot pull all your converted files into the "Master" folder in the Media tab, right-click, "auto sync based on timecode" and expect it to work. It will sync to the first .wav file(in other words, the top-left audio file) in the Master folder. A Resolve specialist told me it might be a problem because the 5D Mk 2 does not have embedded time code. The 5d mk 3 however, has a timecode function. There might be a clue in here for effortlessly syncing audio files.

My audio is 22/23 frames off. This might be because a.) I am not using onboard camera mics. I run my audio from a shotgun mic via XLR cable through a juicedlink and then into the camera. I suspect this might cause a in the signal or something. b.) I'm using Komputerbay 128GB 1050x cards which are simply not writing fast enough. They average at 95mb/sec but I suspect that is still too slow.

I have no reference track so must manually lip sync audio. If I don't see a person talking, I cannot sync the audio because I have no reference unless I snap my finger or use a clapper board during start of recording. But found that this is totally impractical in doc settings, which is what I do, because people feel irritated and distracted when you snap your fingers in front of their face before rolling the camera. Brings attention to yourself and the camera which is detrimental. Still figuring it out. Any ideas on how to sync audio to video seamlessly? I'm using Resolve 10. Maybe Resolve 11 will solve this?
