    Hi Guys…

    Is it possible to do a replace edit in premiere?

    for example:

    lets say I move my play head to a specific frame in the source viewer

    then I move my play head in the timeline to a specifc point in a clip…

    I’d like to lay the edit in by matchin the two play heads and having the record clip replaced to it’s current extents on the timeline with the new srouce.

    Even better…if it has fx staced on it…

    I’d like them to still be there on the replacement source…

    You are talking about a 3 or 4 point edit, and it is commonly used. But you are not going to get the same fx unless you plan ahead. Copy the item to be replaced and paste it out of the way on a separate track or at the end of the sequence. Replace the video in a 3 or 4 point edit, then copy the copy so you can paste it’s attributes on the new clip.

    Alex,

    Please write a feature request to Adobe! You’re right, there’s not a good way
    to do this and keep the filters. You can copy and paste them, but if you have
    transitions on either or both sides of that clip, they’re gone after your edit
    is performed! A replace function should take care of both issues if it’s implemented
    correctly!
