Problem solved.

I was using an old tee vee as a monitor.

Replaced it with a flat screen and contraction and delay problem went away.

Thanks for helping me!

Thank you so much for posting this!!! It solved the problem that I describe below and which I just posted on the Creative Cow forum. You have given me back my weekend.
When I de-selected Use Maximum Render Quality on the Encoder I got my five second dissolves back.

Hopefully this will help someone else as confused as I was.

Oh no.

My burned H264s have stuttering crawls again.

I saw that Jim Simon and Bill Hunt on the Adobe forum suggeested to make the crawl in Photo Shop, and then use Motion and keyframes to make the crawl, bypassing the titler completely.

I don’t have Photo Shop but I will get it.

Some of my crawls are ten minutes long.

Should that work? Anything else I should know?

Would love some input from the experts. (I would contact those two directly but don’t know how.)

Thanks Doug

Aha,

I right click on the clip and select Frame Blend.

Voila!!
