  • How do I adjust parameters of filter applied to sequence?

    Hey all,

    This is a bonehead question, but I can’t figure this out and my research is coming up dry. I’ve got an additive dissolve applied between two clips and is pushing my video up to 110 lines. I’m assuming I’m suppposed to be down around 100, and the only way I could figure to drop the levels is to nest the sequence and then apply the broadcast safe filter. I would just color correct the clips individually, but they’re already fine – it’s the additive dissolve that’s the problem, and the only way to adjust that (that I’ve found) is to nest the clips and apply the broadcast safe filter to the whole thing. However, after dropping the filter on, how do I get to it to adjust it? If I double-click the nest, it opens up the original sequence instead of loading it in the viewer window (I realize that this is the way it’s supposed to work, and I’m fine with that – but my ignorance is hampering me here).

    Any thoughts for a fool?

    DRAG the nest from the timeline and DROP it into the Viewer.

    Or click once (highlight) the nest and Control-click (Right-click) “Open in Viewer”.

    Hitting the ENTER key on the numeric keypad sends it directly to the viewer too… else I’ve just got my keyboard set up that way — I forget.

    Wow, now I feel stupid. Sigh. Staring me in the face it was – thanks!
