I have a multicam clip imported from other software with only one angle
I created a new angle, and when I drag and drop a new video to the new angle the video is not added to the new angle but to the end of the first angle
How can I fix it?
MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.3
so the error is something different, the "start" attribute, that indicates the start frame compiled from the timecode was slightly wrong due to drop-frame calculation.

I can't reproduce this.
Test with a new multicam clip - just select one clip in the browser, make a multicam, add an angle, drag some other clip to the new angle. Same problem?
If not, then there is something funky about that specific multicam (though I can't think why that would happen).
If the problem occurs also with a new multicam, try deleting FCP preferences.
It doesn't happen in new multicam clip, but I do see that the timecode of the multicam clip and the video inside is non zero one, and the new video I try to add as an angle has a timecode 00:00:00, maybe it causes a bug in FCP?
Since the multicam in question has only one angle, would it be possible to create a new one with the same clip(s)? What other application produced this multicam, and what features does it have that would be impossible or difficult to reproduce with FCP alone?

Did you make sure that the two clips, the one in the multicam, and the one you’re adding, have been assigned different camera angle numbers or names?
Tom, this always a good thing to have in mind when making a multicam, but do you think it is relevant when the OP was directly dragging a clip to an angle in the Angle Editor?

I think I found the issue, the tcStart of the multicam clip was not 0, but the timecode of the video file inside of it, so dragging a new video with 0 timecode caused the bug
can't add video to angle in multicam clip
