Premiere Pro CC 7.01 Update

That is a great help for nested sequences.

However, all I want to do is match from my source to the same shot in an opened timeline. Just the reverse of what match frame does. It’s something FCP 7 did easily. Any chance of that happening soon?

What’s the keystroke to do this in FCP 7?

It’s just “F” from the source window. Matches to the same frame on the opened timeline.

Yes that is a nice feature and it is on our list.

If you haven’t already please make your desires known. They more people request the more likely it is to get implemented.

Thanks, Peter – I’ve done so. Also will put in a feature request for the display of timecode from sources while viewing in the program monitor (this was the other holdover from FCP 7 that I greatly miss – Adobe has replaced or enhanced almost everything else that I needed from that venerable old app and made it all much faster now as well!).

Oh yes! I’ll second the timecode from sources in the program monitor. There have been a few times in the last few months when it would have been great to easily confirm timecode on clips in a sequence without have to match cut to see the timecode.

Heading over to the feature request page now….

Hi David, there is a function in Premiere that can help you with that. It’s not a one click button, but I like the detailed options I get with this.

1. Switch your rushes bin to icon mode

2. Reveal Clip in Project. That brings up the clip in the bin. Now in CC, you can also do this command from the source monitor.

3. On the revealed clip in the bin, you should have a little video and audio icon on the bottom right corner of the thumbnail to show that the clip has been used. If you hover over that icon, it will tell you how many times you have used the clip.

4. Click on that icon and it will bring up a list of where that clip has been used in your project, showing you both the name of the sequence and the timecode it is at. From that list, if you click on the sequence you’re working on, it will bring up the sequence and bring the playhead to the point where the clip is with the clip selected.

Not exactly reverse match frame, but close, and this is one little feature that I like in Premiere. It shows that the team went into detail when designing the hover scrub/icon mode function in CS6, although surprisingly they left out sorting options, which has now been added into Premiere CC.

The only issue with this function is that if you have used that clip many times and you have a lot of duplicate/versioned sequences, then you may end up with a rather long list of sequences in the drop down contextual menu, and perhaps that could be confusing.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, but that’s far too laborious a process to simply get from the source window back to the same shot in the timeline! I certainly hope the folks at Adobe are working on a way to simply press one button and land back on that same frame in an opened timeline. FCP 7 has done it for years…
