Thanks in advance for any help.

A client gave me a bad dub of some footage, I digitized it, and then added about 20 markers with descriptions of the footage (from inside the Browser). They just found the original footage (same time code), and so I want to re-capture that, but also need to preserve the markers and ad them to the new (exact same) footage. is there a way to do that? I've searched the website but couldn't find an answer.

Thanks so much,
Reuven

Go to spherico.com/filmtools
and look for the marker tool. You should be able to export the an XML of the original clip and transfer them to the new clip.
Thank Andreas for the cool little utility and by some of his other shareware.
Oh and put this in a feature request as well.

An alternative:

Line up the old clip with the new one on the timeline, one on top of the other. Now either conform the markers by hand (20 markers would take five, 10 minutes), or try Copy/Paste Attributes - Content; copy the new clip and then using Paste Attributes - Content on the old one.

you say the new version has teh same TC?

then shouldn't you be able to simply control click on the clip and "Batch Capture"

the old media will be deleted in favour of the new,
and the markers will al stay in place.

alternatively,
make the original media offline, and re-capture.

for safety, you can keep the old clips, too.

copy the marked clips into a new project.
make them offline but keep them on the disk
recapture.
the new captures will go to a new capture scratch folder as you are now capturing in a new project.
