    This only works if there is video left (not the situation I was talking about) if there is NO video on the TL associated with the audio is there a way to ge the video (that’s what I want)

    Marisu,

    Do not have any video track active, just one of you audio only cuts

    park at the head of the audio cut and press T for matchframe

    the clip in your source viewer is what you want, change edit mode to video only and add over existing video

    This works for me all the time

    There is a keyboard function to Trim In/Out point to CTI. It is not yet nearly as elegant as Avid or Liquid implimentation as in PPro you can only use this function to shorten a clip, not lengthen it and there doesn’t seem to be a way to Ripple at the same time. At least thats as far as I get with it.

    Another of my pet peeves is trying to go to the head of a timeline when a clip is selected. Hitting the home key takes you to the head of the clip. You have to deselect it before you can go to the head of the timeline. Couldn’t there be a Windows ctl-home function that takes you there regardless? You’ve gotta wonder if their designers ever talked to users.”

    This doesn’t happen any longer. Pressing Home takes you to the beginning of the sequence and End takes you to the end of the sequence.

    Good to know. That’s one down and a five dozen more to go 🙂

    Larry-

    Good one, I didn’t realize the video would come back if I did matchframe, that one will help a lot (assuming I remember it 😉

    Don’t feel bad it took me a year to find that one. It works just like the backspace key did in edit.

    …mind you I still hit the backspace first. 10 years of shortcuts are hard to unlearn. In fact I bought a little shuttle pro to keep my hands OFF the keyboard for the first while in Premiere because I always hit the wrong keys first, then had to figure out what I did, undo that, and figure out how to do what I intended to do.

    .- For me , that’s bad news, I totally liked it the way it was.

    It was very handy with motion effects, for example, animating the size of a clip from beggining to end.

    Carl — you can use the page-up or page-down key to go the previous or next edit point on the timeline. Of course, if you have a bunch of chopped up audio clips or other overlaying video clips or audio clips, you’re going to be paging through each of them before you get to the top or bottom of the clip you’re using.

    I’m glad to hear that PP2 has the home for the sequence feature, though. It was a bit off before to my taste.
