Hi Chris,

Thanks for the response.

Wow, well that’s pretty lame. What you suggested is what I’ve been doing, I just thought there was something awry.

Off to the Adobe feature request website! (again)

Thanks again!

Hey Kestutis,

Thanks for posting the link. I’ve submitted probably half a dozen feature requests thus far. I’m actually pretty hopeful that the next dot release will address some of the UI clunkiness.

Adobe has been very responsive to suggestions, with improvements to this app in particular, unlike some personal electronics manufacturers who shall remain nameless.

Cheers.

Thanks for the response.

That’s pretty much what I figured. At least there’s a search bar in the keyboard customization window now, although it would be nice if it could also look things up by key command.

There are so many little things that you just cannot get done with the keyboard in Premiere. I’m loving about 90% of what I’m seeing, but little things, like not being able to increment number fields with the up and down arrows, like every other app in the creative suite, or not having a way to select and manipulate individual clips in the timeline without a mouse, is a bit of an annoyance.

Hopefully Adobe actually reads feature requests and gets working on fixing these glaring omissions sooner rather than later.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the response.

I’m aware of keyboard customization in Premiere. Take a look at the visual aid I uploaded a couple posts down. I’m trying to “Assign Source Video” to Video 1, Video 2, etc. or “Assign Source Audio” to Audio 1, Audio 2 etc. I’m not trying to perform an insert edit. I’m trying to tell the source window which video and/or audio channel to put the insert, overlay, fit to fill, etc. without having to literally drag with the mouse the grey “V” or “A1” to the channel I want.

Thanks again.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the response.

This isn’t really what I’m getting at. I’ve already custom mapped these to cmd+1, cmd+2, etc.

What I’m referring to is this:

I’ve figured out how to toggle V and A1 off and on, I’m just not able to assign them without using the mouse.

Any ideas?

Just got this issue resolved in another thread. Worked like a champ. Thanks for the response.

Since you’ve done business with them before, any way to post an email address so I can contact them?

It’s so weird that for a business that does so much of their business online, they’re so difficult to contact.

Thanks again.

Well that was ridiculously easy.

Many thanks!!!

As far as performance of the flashed cards vs stock in Lion, it’s my understanding that the stock card has half the data throughput of a flashed card. It works, but it’s not as fast.

I’m using CUDA-Z to benchmark and the Host to Device memory copy sits at about 2900 MiB/s in Lion and about 3300 in Win 7. It should be over 5000 on a flashed card. I just wish it were easier to contact the people at MacVidCards.com. The website has no way to contact them, although I guess I could message them on Ebay, which is where they seem to sell most of their cards.

Thanks again!

Hi David,

I too am curious about having my recently purchased GTX 570 flashed. There isn’t really any kind of contact info on MacVidCards.com, so I guess this forum could work.

Also, and I understand if this isn’t something you could or should answer, would flashing affect After Effects CS6 support (or lack thereof)? I’m thinking it wouldn’t, but it would be nice to know. Working in Windows is definitely nostalgic, but can be a little frustrating at times.

Please let me know the best way to contact you.

Thanks!

Hi Kevin,

Correct, something similar to that. There is no Mac specific version of this that I can find.

Guess it’s kind of a wait and see thing.

Hey Wendell,

Thanks for the response.

I just had a chance to try this out on OSX and it look like a Windows, or at the very least, a boot camp issue and it may just be something specific to my hardware.

I’m going to be happy when Adobe supports my GPU in OSX. I came from windows probably 8-9 years ago and I’m def missing a few UI things in OSX that make life a little easier. Hover scrolling inactive windows is one thing that comes to mind. I hate that I have to actually click in a window to activate it before I can actually scroll through it in Windows. The up arrow to jump the cursor to the beginning of a field is def a time saver as well and reaching with my pinky finger for the control button instead of my thumb for the command button is def less ergonomic. And then theres’ column view, being able to view folder sizes in Finder windows, spacebar to preview, etc.

First world problems.

Thanks again.
