Syncing Multiple Cameras with Premiere Pro CC automatically
 
Is it possible to sync multiple camera angles of an edit automatically in CC? It adds reasonably time to start of my workflow and an automatic system would be amazing.

I know of plural eyes but never had success with it.

Yes, you can, and very easily.

I tried this earlier, but it doesn't seem to work with footage if the clips are split up in a few parts it doesn't seem to work :s, so I guess syncing up manually is only way.

It depends on what you mean by "split up into a few parts".
Do you have one track/angle which runs continuously? In which case it should work.

I routinely sync XDCAM EX footage with Ninja footage. The Ninja footage is split up into 4GB sections - about nine minutes - while the XDCAM is continuous. Premiere syncs the lot without problem, except that each Ninja section is on a separate layer, so I have to bring them all down into one track before starting the edit.

If you don't have one track/angle that runs continuously then you could rethink how you do your filming... either jam sync your cameras at the start of shooting and set the timecode to free run, and sync by timecode, or, once you start recording, either don't stop recording on any cameras, or at the least keep one camera running continuously.
