Dont know which version you are using but this was fixed a long time ago.

I import using Prelude without transcoding and found that it started doing that a few updates ago. It brings in all the subfolders, content/clips, for the .mxf files. When I import I get the same as you. My workaround has been to take the .mxf files out of the clips folder and move them to my top level footage folder for that project and that…

Hello, I’m new to after effects. I understand how a stinger transition works, and how to create a invert colour effect via videos online. But I’m having a hard time implementing both of them to create this fake shine effect where the colours invert.

I’ve been using the closed captioning function inside Premiere 2022 and it works nicely and is easy to use. I also have used rev.com. They are fast and very inexpensive. I’ve had turnaround sometimes in under an hour.
