Same here, thanks.

Have you been able to access any area of the developer site today? I haven’t been able to get past the log in screen at all today.

Jeremy, brilliant. Annnndd… Done

Hmm I’m trying to remember the solution to project settings not being available, I feel like it was mentioned by Larry Jordan or in a macbreak studio episode. All the settings seem to be available to me in any random project. Maybe that is just when going from NTSC to PAL. Did you first change the project properties format to SD before trying to change the resolution? Specific resolutions are only available with their corresponding format chosen.
You should be fine to create a new project and paste everything in. If you have mixed formats, you may need to first “lock down” the timeline settings by adding one clip to the timeline with the properties you want the timeline to be, or add any clip and change the project settings (otherwise an empty timeline will take on the properties of the first clip added to it. Then copy everything in the timeline original timeline and paste it in the new one. Then delete the clip you used to lock down the timeline settings.

Here’s the pics he uploaded-

Dissolve on white with compound solution-

Andy, that should be the case, but with the offending clip not being full-screen the underlying clip still shows through in the blank areas.

Curious if you ordered the card, or any other upgrades?

Glad that the workaround works for you. As long as the generator doesn’t extend under a transition to/from the primary/secondary storylines.
Yeah reconnect audio and sync indicators, also better yet, “bring back audio” and “bring back video”. Right clicking a clip and choosing an option would add the respective audio or video back to the selected clip, without the need for both pieces of audio and video to be on the timeline and selected in order to “reconnect” or having to match and replace the clip from the Event Browser.
I haven’t actually had any problems with detached audio, or really aware of any (besides the lack of reconnect and sync indicators, of course). Most of the time I disconnect audio, its respective video is deleted and the audio used out of sync anyway. In this case everything just behaves as expected.

If I understand correctly, you have two connected clips in one secondary storyline. The clips have a transition between them but during the transition the video on the primary storyline shows through in areas that one clip is not full-screen.
Assuming you want a black background, compound the just the two clips and the transition between them (not the secondary storyline itself, or other transitions), then go into the compound clips timeline and drop a black generator underneath the transition. Step back into the project and apply in/out cross dissolves to the compound clip if desired.
Now that I typed that out, I realize you could just drop a black generator under the transition, between the primary and secondary storylines and be done.

It’s no problem. You can go to the project library, select the project in question, duplicate it (in order to leave your current project alone, just in case), select the new copy, click the little wrench icon in the inspector to open project properties, change project to 720×486, done.
If the image is distorted when you go into the SD project, try just going back to the project library then back into the project again. Otherwise you may need to set the Conform and/or Transform settings accordingly.
