The horizontal scroll bar is now also the scale. Grab the ends and drag. 🙂
I tend to use the _ and = to zoom.
There’s also a scroll wheel with alt key held down.
And the magnifier took (z key)
😉

August 19, 2012 at 11:22 pm in reply to: (VIDEO QUESTION) – A simple way to flatten / merge video tracks on to one?Hey Steve,
Yes the video was inspired by this thread 🙂
I haven’t made tutorials in a while and I figured why not bring in a special guest!
Glad you find it useful, I was wondering whether to leave it as an unorthodox tutorial or do a “straight” version.
Cheers JB

There is a problem when trying to XML from FCP and there are Multiclip Audio in the timeline. However this only seems to drop the audio edits translating into that sequence.
Can you describe the type of FCP project you are trying to XML out?
Devil will be in the details 🙂

If you want to reset the motion parameters (which makes the clip centered and full screen) hit the reset button next to the motion parameter in effects control. Make sure it hasn’t created an animation with the time stamp button preactivated. Select the motion parameter (name) copy, select the clips in the sequence and paste. Done.
Manually pushing the clips to fit bak to their default setting must have taken ages…

August 12, 2012 at 2:58 am in reply to: Is there a way to change the default export setting in adobe premier pro cs6?G’day Ashley,
Export is one terminology = the end process to have a final “export” via Media Encoder to get a single finished video file.
When doing this process the last settings used should be recalled when exporting again. Good Idea to save any customization you make so if you export to another setting you can recall it back.
You can also make a preset folder in Media Encoder and just drag it on to the sequence before exporting.
Render (for Preview in PPro) = the process whereby you want to watch back, AKA preview, effects heavy clip/s in the timeline to get realtime playback. The render format for preview is by default set to MPEG-2, but it can be changed in the Sequecnce Settings to a multitude of formats such as Uncompressed or P2, etc… ProRes on Mac if installed.
If you want to make your own custom preset sequence to have a specific preview render format from the start of an edit then you can create a custom sequence at the New Sequence settings Tabs, just set it up across the tabs at that point and save preset. It will then live in the Preset list under custom.
The Render Preview process when using a high end system is almost never required. The FCP approach of rendering as you work is unnecessary for final export and wastes much time.
Once editors actually play the timeline (even when the timeline is red) and see the performance is fine the time it would take to render is left by the wayside and turn around times are decreased = faster out the door.
Hope this helps.
Cheers JB

August 11, 2012 at 12:26 am in reply to: (VIDEO QUESTION) – A simple way to flatten / merge video tracks on to one?First can I ask why you want this option…
Don’t get me wrong, I like it, I just want to understand the purpose…
It’s not there, but I recommend filing a feature request.
https://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CHQQFjAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.adobe.com%2Fcfusion%2Fmmform%2Findex.cfm%3Fname%3Dwishform&ei=BqYlUIiAG9SbiQe1loDACQ&usg=AFQjCNFhgYEtcWS7dLIpYCc24PCIBwb1IQ&sig2=cv7iG2oANm6v5iYUwWQcpwIf I can understand the why a bit more I can look into options… If its just to clean it up.
I use the Track select tool and grab a track at a time from the top and pull down since all shots are viewed top-down. To keep everything from losing sync I use the in/out around selection shortcut and the In point on the sequence for the first frame of a selection forces a harder snapping point. 🙂

G’day Shawn,
It’s just a redraw “type” issue with the codec, if it exports out fine, be patient 🙂
There’s so much great stuff in the workflow of PrCS6 that everyone that “gets” the different approach have fallen in love with it and are helping to make it even better with the type of feedback and social forum look in’s guys at Adobe like myself do on a regular basis.
We know there’s more to work on, we’re listening and want it to be best it can be.
