Variables lacking in smart bin

PostTue Jun 28, 2022 3:19 pm

Hi!
Just found an error/inconsistancy I think. Hopefully easy to solve.

I filmed an interview with two cameras, A and B.
First I used the field "Camera" in the Inspector to mark clips.
Then I checked in the meta data tab. Turns out the same information went into the field "Camera #"

//The minor problem: It would be nicer with consistant terms here - preferably using Camera # in both places.

Then I wanted to do a smart bin showing everything shot with camera B. But I can't find the variable "Camera #" in the list. I find many other camera related variables, like "Camera serial #", but they do not correspond to the thing I entered.

// The main problem: Could not make a smart bin filtering out clips using the info in the Camera # field.

Maybe I'm just doing something wrong, but it does look like an error or inconsistancy to me :-)

Best regards,
Elias

It's in the Smart Bin "Metadata - Shot & Scene" group, listed as "Camera #"
