Alternatively, as you look at the visual interface for the CC filter, the upper left corner will have an icon that looks like a hand on a box. click and drag that icon to the clips on your timeline. Or, under the filter tab, you can drag the filter to the clips on your timeline.

use the fastest drive for editing.

exactly what shane said, but I find I usually need to boost that saturation also when raising the mids

Is it possible to key out the background of the talking head, lower the image on the y axis a bit, and drop in a new background?

I don’t know if it’s possible with AE, but I get the same type of error if I try to import images from photoshop that are CYMK; I have to go in and resave as RGB. Possible that a similar type of thing is happening? (I don’t have my laptop, and thus AE, today to verify that possibility).

I saw specs yesterday on USB 3.0. 600 MB/s
Performance comparison: Transfer of 25GB HD movie:
USB 1.1: 9.3 hours
USB 2.0: 13.9 minutes
USB 3.0: 70 seconds
WOW is all I can say.
the article is here

There’s some scuttlebutt on the ‘net that the Mac Mini is being discontinued….
You didn’t hear it from me, but someone COULD go to insanelymac.com and learn how to make a hackintosh, or better yet, a dual boot hackintosh, so you can run all those windows only programs without a performance hit, or to make a non-OS X using spouse happy. It COULD be a great way to polish up skills/learn new programs/make family vids on your own time w/o spending a lot on hardware. You could even do it on an inexpensive laptop like a Toshiba Satellite that has the same specs of Macbook Pro from a year or so ago. You may need to thoroughly research the process and potential pitfalls, including how to get particular hardware not used by macs (like AMD processors, graphic cards, wireless adapters) to work, as well as workarounds for things like getting the computer to restart after it goes to sleep.
But of course, this is all theoretical…

Don’t know specifically what the problem could be….a number of issues like loading/unloading the program from memory and such comes to mind. Could be hardware, could be software.
Instead I offer you a work around. I have my ctrl, option, and apple keys on the right side of the keyboard mapped to fly out, show all windows, etc…..all those things that you can set under system preferences of OS X. One keystoke shows me my desktop, and the same keystroke, or click the edge of the screen, brings every window back to their original place. Incredible time saver!

Make sure your timeline is DV NTSC, though my guess is it already is. The only other thing i can think of is to take a look at the center coordinates under the motion tab of the scaled clips. Set the individual coordinates to whole, even numbers. Weird, I know, but its always worked for me. And make sure you render the whole timeline before you export (which you are doing correctly).

Even with bare minimum ram it shouldn’t take that long to render one transition….Are you sure you’re not rendering the whole timeline?
A couple things you could look at are the sequence settings render control (right click on the sequence in the bin to change current settings). make sure the render control codec is set for ‘Same as Sequence”. Also, make sure the disk set to recieve your render files is not the same as your system drive. Last, under file===>system settings=====>Memory & Cache, make sure Memory Usage for Application is set for 100%.
