I forwarded to the shooter Pics of before and after…
He says I’m doing good…The one thing I wish I had would be a Black reference and a White reference…. So as to set my input blacks and Whites. And… some sort of color reference “Make this 100% staturated” or the like…
I’d like to be able to start with as close to perfect Black, Gamma, White, and Color Saturation settings…. and if it then needs to be tweaked.. So be it..

Yes… I use MPE an CS5 and I absolutely Love it!!
It is the most productive time-saver I have ever invested in!

It took me a while, but I finally got the email of the shooter…
I forwarded him details of what I did, and request for information regarding a conversion, and a request for test patterns from the camera.. Maybe via test patterns from the camera I can determine mathematically what the Black, White, and saturation settings should be within Fast Color Corrector input settings, and maybe (Wishful thinking–we are talking about Quictime wrapped footage here–you know!) minimize or eliminate the what I believe is a matrix error.. the subtle green cast……I don’t believe PPRO supports LUT’s.

Here’s what I’ve been able to determine, as a combination of Tweak by eye, and mathematics…..:
First… I have to do a multiply of .818 on Fast Color Corrector Input master gamma to get rid of the famous Quicktime gamma push…
That get’s gamma corrrect.
Then, using Black and Gain Input side of Fast Color corrector, I change master blacks and gains to get contrast back to “normal”. Now Blacks Gammas, and gains are OK… Then I increase Saturation…
That gets me 98% of the way there…Problem is, there is a Subtle (What I think is) Matrix error.. The picture is ever so slightly green… I then do a HSL adjustment slightly magenta (Equal but opposite)… That gets me nearly perfect…
However I believe the green error is only in green gamma, so using a overall HSL Magenta adjustment gives me OK gammas, but very very subtle magenta blacks and whites… That’s why I think it is a Matrix error…. Whether this comes from Quicktime or the conversion from RGB to YUV I’m not sure….
I’ve got it to the point where a man on a fast galloping horse wouldn’t know there’s a problem, but I’d certainly want to make it more perfect….That’s where I’m at now….

OH… OK… Well then I hope others ask for this feature, too.
It would seriously help it…
P.S. HAPPY TURKEY!!!

Thank You, Todd…. Yes, I did post as a Feature Request…
I’m suggesting it detect the last action, either Mouse move, or Window Focus command, and act according to last action…
This way, the folks who like mouse win because they move the mouse…..
And if I send a Macro from the Jog/Shuttle keys…. Say:
Shift+4 and then `, it will always work there, too… because I specifically pointed to the window I want to fullscreen with the Keyboard Shortcut, just like the User Manual indicates!
This way, EVERYONE WINS!!!!If other Folks would like to see it as a ‘Preference’ setting… Please post it as a feature request. I can deal with that, too…
Todd… I didn’t look in the After Effects manual for information on Premiere Pro Keys, because it’s an altogether different program….

Page 9 from the PPRO CS5 User’s Guide states:
Display any panel full-screen
You can expand any panel to display it in full-screen mode, and toggle back to normal view.
1Select the panel you want to view full-screen.
2Press the grave accent key (`), or the key that takes its place on your keyboard. Typically, this key lies just to the left of the numeral one (1) key. Some refer to this key as the back quote key, or the tilde (~) key.
Press the back quote key again to toggle back to normal view.Looking for 1939 Indian Motocycle

No. I haven’t looked into another app…. I’m already running the Shuttle Pro V2 app…
The “Work Around” I’ve found is to put the mouse pointer in the Program Window when not used for other things…. at all times.. But I was hoping for a “More Elegant” solution….

Try programming a macro into a Jog/Shuttle button with this… Works some times, but mostly not…
The Macro I was doing did this:
Switches to Program, Goes Full Screen, Backs up CTI 2 seconds and plays. All in one key….
Only works if mouse is on Program….
I got some real strange results with the mouse on window borders, and other places….

That’s Highly Counter-Productive….
Makes programming settings for automation work some times,and not others…
