Link a new wav file to a video not working - DR 17

Hi

I am doing a Multicam job at the moment and I am trying to replace my scratch audio of my recordings with good audi by unblinking the scratch audio and linking the good audio. Unlink works fine but when I then ctrl + select the video + good audio and then click link, unlink, link, unlink over and over until I end with the link button enabled it just doesn't link.

I also tried Ctrl + Alt + L multiple times and it didn't work.

Because this didn't work I had to create a timeline per clip that had the scratch audio muted and the good audio synced but not linked. I then used these timeline in my Multicam setup but seems Multicam can't sync audio of timelines. So the not being able to link them causes a Multicam issue of not being able to sync

The guys that support Blackmagic software helped me with linking the audio.

The best way to do it is in the media pool page. Just select the clip that has scratch audio and the good audio that goes with that clip. Sync the audio in media pool. The software will replace the scratch audio with the good audio and then you can use the clip anywhere easily. No need to sync the good audio again.
