Please do fill the request… I will too. And so should anyone who dislikes FCP in this regard too. Thanks!

Yes, I consider CTRL rippling one of the greatest Premiere workflow features.

Jon, how does this apply to Eric’s question? He asked specifically about Premiere.

I don’t think you can do this, you can only trim (not extend) in/out points to CTI, and you’ve got to map these functions yourself via Keyboard customization.

As a basic rule of thumb, don’t use thin fonts, serifed fonts and thin lines.

You cannot really compare AVCHD playback performance of Avid vs Premiere, since Avid transcodes everything into its own highly optimized MXF (or OMF) media files (AVCHD file transcoded to Avid must be really HUGE), whereas Premiere plays the original AVCHD media. I think Adobe should add some intermediate codec too, but that’s another story.

AVCHD and MPEG4 in general is optimized for distribution, and I scratch my head what lead camera manufacturers to use it as an acquisition format.

Same here.can I please have the PDF mailed to jfiala@gmail.com too? Thanks!

I can’t thank you enough Kevin! That’s exactly what I needed. Now I can fake even more stuff with AE 😀

Thanks again!

I am sorry but I am rather confused. I am unable to modify the expression to suit my needs :(.

I need a brightness of a sample area (say 20×20 pixels) of layer “footage” (let`s say from coords 20,300 – close to mid left edge of screen. The area stays the same) to translate to opacity of layer “flicker”.

Please help, thanks!

I think I understand, but I had a hard time understanding the index: so the [2] means “skip the first two members of an array”? Would [1] mean “return saturation value”?

Thanks for your excellent help.
