using timecode. Control track is available in the Timeline and Source Tools.

The timecode field changes and the text becomes yellow. To switch back to
viewing the timecode, click the Control Track button again.
To reset the control track to zero:
• Click the Reset Control Track button while in Control Track mode.
Using Match Frame
NewsEdit can match frames on the Timeline with the input source. Use Match
Frame if you need to add more material at the beginning or end of a clip.
You can Match Frame to either the Bin or Source.
Match Frame to Bin

as a clip source.
To match frame to the Bin:
1. Select a clip on the Timeline.
2. Select the frame you want to match.
3. Press F3 on the keyboard.
NewsEdit finds the frame on the clip and loads it as a clip source.
