    It works in 5.2, actually since 5.0… you have to select it (they made it a user option) go into settings and I believe it’s under Trim (not at the machine right now)

    Extend Edit and JKL Trim are already part of XpressPro.

    Media from Xpress Pro/DV can not be read on FreeDV so that option is out.

    But you could look into getting Automatic Duck (www.automaticduck.com) this utility allows you to import an Avid sequence/project into Premiere Pro.

    Then you could re-digitized whatever is necessary in Premiere Pro.

    If I think of any other solutions, I will be sure to let you know.

    When you capture or import Source material, Avid will create a .omf file that resides in a folder named OMFI MediaFiles on the hard drive.

    What are the other systems you’re referring to? Depending on the nature of the other systems, there may be a potential other workaround to exchange the files.

    Yep that’ll work too, it’s sometimes referred to as “poorman’s copyright”, it’s generally heard of it being used by musicians who send out demo tapes to record labels.

    To me, it’s much more “logical” to have it edit out exactly one frame, because if you look at a film negative you always cut “between the frames”, if you want to extract one frame, then it makes sense to cut on either side of the frame. Premiere and FCP allow you to edit magically I guess in a world where physics doesn’t exist… though it does make you wonder how something can be frame accurate if they allow this type of “illogical” cutting of frames?

    Also, instead of having “back up” one frame from the cut point, hold CTRL+ALT while clicking near the transition and it’ll snap to the head of the last frame (thereby placing your OUT precisely at the end of the clip)
