Example: - The search text input in the project bin contains "birthday". - Only clips with "birthday" in their name appear in the bin. - In the timeline, right click and click on "clip in project bin" on a clip from a video called "garden.mov". - garden.mov won't be highlighted and a black screen will appear. - However, if you do the step above for a clip coming from a video called "birthday.mov", it will work correctly, hinting what may be the problem.

Thanks for your report. Although it might be slightly confusing, from a logical point of view, the actual behavior is correct. What is your proposal then ? Do you expect the Bin search filter to be cleared when we call "clip in project bin" from the timeline ?
Thanks for responding. I can't think of a scenario where I would sacrifice the convenience of the "find clip" feature always working (I even have a hotkey assigned to it) for the sake of keeping the filter in the project bin. Maybe the design of the current approach should be reconsidered, since finding the 1 specific media clip in the bin based on a clip in the timeline should logically be never constrained by a filter, unless I'm missing something.
