  Frame Viewer and QuickView in FCP – Premiere equivalents?

  Posted by Jon Felix on October 17, 2012 at 8:22 pm

  I guess the subject says it all: In my transition from FCP to PP; I’m trying to find equivalents to FCP’s super-useful Frame Viewer (with it’s split viewing) and Quickview – with it’s low res preview of effects.

  Thanks!

  There is a split mode in the 3-way Color corrector, Fast Color Corrector, and RGB Color Corrector just the tools where you need a split.

  You like QuickView? That’s an odd one that not many even know about. Premiere Pro has something better, the Mercury Playback Engine. Just preview it all in RT.

  Thanks for the reply Kevin – but I have to say that split view is not an equivalent to Frame Viewer – which is much more versatile (e.g.. you can have a split between IN and OUT points), and I use for far more purposes than color correction.

  Also, alas you taunt me with your mention of the Mercury Playback Engine. Despite patiently waiting for months, Adobe has still not provided support for my 2011 Imacs’ graphics card. I am beginning to think that they never will … probably because it seems to me that Adobe have little interest in supporting Macs now. Very sad. I could love Premiere truly, madly, deeply, but at the moment my old FCP7 is faster.
