What is the maximum number of In/Out points allowed in source priority editing?

In source priority editing within AVID Media Composer, the maximum number of In points that can be set on a single source clip is three, while only one Out point is permitted. This feature allows for more flexibility in selecting multiple segments from a single clip. By allowing three In points, editors can easily mark multiple segments of interest for use in the timeline, while the single Out point serves as the defining end of the selection.

This design supports a more efficient workflow, enabling the editor to focus on key moments from a clip without having to create duplicate clips or manage excessive markers. Understanding these limits is crucial for effective editing, particularly when dealing with complex projects where multiple selections from the same source can enhance storytelling or pacing.
