Just realized that “open in timeline” (from contextual menu) gives you access to dual mono without breaking apart clips.

Just figure out that if I control click a compound clip, and choose “open in timeline” you get access to the handles again. If you extend the clip length in the separate timeline then go back to the main timeline you can trim the compound clip beyond the original in and out point.

I’ve tried to use the Magnum script, but without any usable results so far.

Funny how much you sound like some of the AVID editors I knew when the original FCP came out.

They said the same things about change. And they were sure FCP was different, and were allergic to blindly following some new paradigm.

Time will tell. Talk to you in a year.

Michael, I wouldn’t call them or anyone today a snob. It just appears that some folks are more open to change than others and can see the possibility in new ways of doing things. Doesn’t make the old ways obsolete either… I’ll be using FCP7 for awhile yet for projects I would imagine, even when I do begin to use FCPX.

> As for the comments from the prosumer that wrote that Adobe AE was just a toy <<< Michael, The "prosumers" you reference were Flame artists and other equivalent FX pros. The same people who said After Effects would never be used for high end film or broadcast work.

Yep. FCP v1 was considered a toy.

Certainly Premiere Pro was considered a toy fairly recently by most, but is now being considered by “pros” as an alternative to FCPX.

After Effects was considered a toy in the mid to late ’90s.

MiniDV was also considered non-pro.

I wonder what “pros” thought of the first AVID release?

Same story repeated over and over.

I wouldn’t want to bet at this point that FCPX isn’t history repeating.

That’s helpful. Saving does allow me to move past the issue.

I’m just moving emitters using the add button into a favorites library.

I’ll generate a crash log in the next couple of days when I have time.

Love having PI in AE.

Thanks, James

ps, there is some kind of conflict between PI and VideoCopilot Optical Flare. Optical Flare crashes AE when I add PI to a comp. Turning off Optical Flare’s use of the GPU seems to fix the issue.

I am not able to ever close the MEL dialog without a crash if I have modified a library. But about half the time it will crash randomly while I am modifying a library.

No particular action triggers the action as far as I can tell. Working in the MEL dialog generally triggers the crash.

I would save if I could but I am not given a chance.

Thanks, James
