Broken: version: 2.81 (sub 16), branch: master, commit date: 2019-11-06 20:48, hash: `rB85637311c28f`
I tested this in 2.80 and 2.79 with the same results, which makes me wonder if this is known yet? Couldn't find in a search for "meta strip keyframes"
**Short description of error**
Meta strips appear to be self contained movie clips that can be re-used anywhere and perform exactly the same. But this isn't true for meta strips that have key frames.
When you copy and paste a meta strip that contains key frame animation, the copy doesn’t have any of the keyframes, and remains static.
**Exact steps for others to reproduce the error**
# Drag an image into the timeline. And check the "Offset" box in it's properties to stop it stretching to fill the screen.
# Add a "Transform" effect strip to it
# Add some key frames on the X and Y position of the Transform strip to move it around the screen.
# Select both the image strip and the transform strip and press CTRL+G to make a Meta strip.
# Select the meta strip, CTRL+C to copy, move the playhead somewhere else, CTRL+V to paste it
# Notice that the pasted strip does not animate.
I've attached a minimal example that demonstrates the issue.
