Re-linking audio

I should know how to do this. But I'm having a bad time with it.

The dailies on this show are all 3 frames out of sync. So I UNLINK sound and picture with Command L, then I shift the sound by 3 frames.

Now I want to re-link the sound and picture. Harrumph.

The only "help" information I can find tells me how to do this with individuals shots, not with an entire timeline full of dailies.

Help appreciated.

Harry.

Sadly, that's the way to do it, Harry. One by one.

Hell.

But thanks for the bad news, Jude,

Best wishes,

Harry.

i'm pretty sure you can UNLINK everything in one go,
and you can SLIP or MOVE all audio or pic in one go,
but you have to RE-LINK one by one.

that's in FCP.

Andreas Keil from Spherico Filmtools once made a small XML app which would link an entire FCP timeline.
i cant see it on his site.
might be worth contacting him if he doesn't see this.

Harry,

Depending on setup another option might be to put them all into a sequence, lock the video track, select all audio, hit + or - and then enter the offset.
