    Actually, it needs some kind of animated button for a zero-frame trim, so you can *look* like you made a change but didn’t.

    Can we call it the Mirror Trim?

    How about an automated video analyzer so you can, “Make it like that?”

    But I like dissolves…
    (the stuff I shoot is unrehearsed, unscripted and unacted and only intended for local viewing. anything that makes things less abrupt is fine by me)

    [Richard Herd] “It needs a button for corporate clients: “Make it softer by adding dissolves to every cut” and the “don’t be creative” button.”

    Those will be included in the Corporate Plugin Pack along with these other exciting features:

    – “Make my logo bigger” button

    – “Virtual committee” button for randomly generating up to 20 conflicting and poorly articulated opinions on an edit

    – original idea removal tool

    – “de-emote” filter for removing any sign of life from actors’ performances

    – “Make viral video” button

    – Legal disclaimer generator

    – “Make the boss’s girlfriend look and sound like a real actress” filter

    Alan, you forgot a plugin to make the horrible PowerPoint supplied to you and that they want you to use actually look nearly acceptable.

    [Alan Okey] “- “Virtual committee” button for randomly generating up to 20 conflicting and poorly articulated opinions on an edit

    No thanks. Got that one already.

    I defiantly want the “Polish Turd” Filter, takes a steaming pile and turns it into a Hollywood master piece.

    I guess I could settle for the “Magic box” button or the Suck-less Slider

    and the “You needed to shoot X even though it was not on the shot list.” Also known as the “shot list maximizer expression.”

    It really needs a release date:p
    And proper Audiounit support.
