i think it’s in Preferences under Timeline/Set Focus

Yep….I’ve had this happen. I will playback my timeline and the audio levels won’t be correct.
Then all of a sudden things will be fine.
I export using CMD-M on my Mac. I have had all kinds of things stripped off my output using Media Encoder.

You could use the Lumetri Color/ Secondary Color Corrector to change the orange to green.

yes you can gather the bits from your render files but you won’t have audio.
as a test i put the pieces back together from a commercial done weeks ago.

usually i just use After Effects. then you can parent/child the scene and pan/zoom or use the camera.

well you could build your grid in a larger size sequence..say…8k and then nest it and then import the nest into your 1920×1080 sequence and then your could pan it across.
kind of a klutzy way of doing it but it works.

i read somewhere that you can fix this by muting and then un-muting audio tracks on the timeline.

[Jerry Wise]

i read somewhere that you need to mute and then un-mute your audio tracks and that might solve the problem.

nesting in final cut 7 was so easy….nesting in final cut X is a real pain. nesting in premiere is very painful.
the only reason i can think of is because of the structure of the software. and adobe probably doesn’t want to spend time to fix it.

forgot to mention…you apply track matte key to the footage nest.
it was so much easier in FCP 7…but don’t get me started…
