Maybe this is a stupid suggestion, but have you tried duplicating your Start TC into the Aux TC 1 column. (Choose the START column, hit ctrl/cmd+D and then choose the Aux TC 1 column. Once that timecode is copied over, then you can easily re-type any timecode you want to change. Then when you multigroup, just choose to synce via Aux TC 1.

Is this a new change? I know in the past I've been able to take Avid Projects from newer software to older vesions. The only issues if there's new features/effects that were used, they may not show up in the older software, but the project will work. Going from 2018.12 to 6.5 is a big leap back, but I would suspect it would work. If anything

Are you usuing Media Composer First? If so, it seems to default to Multi-pass export and you can't turn it off. Either suffer the equivalent of 4 exports (progress bar going to 100 four times) or export as DNxHD (which only takes one pass) and then convert to H264 outside of Media Composer First.

I would apprach it this way. Work in a 1920x1080 project. Create a 4:3 mask to put on a layer above all your footage in the timeline. As you cut your footage into lower tracks and edit, then add a resize and adjust framing or positioning underneath the mask. Finsih your edit. Just before export, remove the mask off the upper layer. On the export dialog

If you have a "project" showing up in the Media Tool or MDV it's becuase there's a peice(s) of media still on a drive somewhere that was created with that project. The project something is created in is kept as meta-data in that media. Could be as simple as a title or a render that was accidentally sent to the wrong drive ( or C drive

Crazy question...what is the frame rate of the footage and what is framerate of the project? I've noticed if you have "clip colors" turned on in the timeline menu, and then you have a mixed framerates, that sometimes certain framerates are the exact same color as the "highlighting" when you mark in/out. Perhaps it is highlighting

Park your blue line over the graphic. Open the effect editor. Hold the "alt" key and then click and drag the effect icon from the effect editor to a bin. It should say "(Without Src)" on it. Cut your new graphic in the timeline. Drag the "Without Src" effect from the bin onto the graphic. Done.

Usually this is becuase you have a clip in your Source window that doesn't match the framerate of the project. If you cut tha clip into the timeline then an invisible timewarp is added converting the clip to the framerate of the project. You can then export the clip from the timeline.

I'm going to ask a stupid question, but do you have the Avid Mediafiles folder sitting directly at the root of the drive, correct?

Sounds like a mash up of "Consolidate" and "Transcode". Beyond that, who knows.
