Thanks for the start of the info, Shane!

How do you mean that the codecs available are based on my project settings? I have many codecs installed on this machine from years of editing in Premiere, including DNxHD, ProRes, Blackmagic, etc.

When I start a project the only place that I am offered presets is in the vague “manage presets” button below the main Format section. (see below)

It doesn’t make sense to me to convert a bunch of downloaded YouTube videos (which are only around 300MB on average) and then convert them to 1 GB files each. There isn’t any resolution gained….

Thanks Yair! Does it also render the Yellow bars? If that’s the case then its no help as all of the timeline is YELLOW..

EDIT: It works. So simple. I feel silly.

While I appreciate the thought, we are an animation company and have to scrutinize many different scenes. So when the render hits the red part, the playback becomes instantly choppy, and we have to render it to see the correct preview and check for timing.

I’ll submit a feature request. I am sure the editors are not skipping this step as we review hundreds of minutes of content per week, and this is the one thing that slows us down a lot, having premiere have to stop and render 4K video every time we hit a clip in a 22 minute timeline. It makes a 2 hour review take 3 hours.

Ah, yes I know that, thank you!

In fact we made a hot key so that we can click on one event, select the in and out points for that event, and render in to out in two keys.

However I was looking for something a little more advanced whereby Premiere could render only the RED sections automatically while leaving the rest like YELLOW off. Sony Vegas had something called “render effects IN to OUT”, which would only render anything that required extra FX on the top of the scenes.

Looking for something more automated so that we don’t have to spend an hour rendering each little section every time we need to preview a 44 minute timeline. It wastes a lot of our review time to have an editor render each clip separately.

What about the edge bending? Is there any type of Distortion whereby only the edge of the screen will bend?

[Matt Chapman]

Thanks guys! I’d prefer to learn the technique rather than just copy the frames, as it seems like it would be do-able using expressions.

Is there a way to randomize the propagation in AE, something akin to setting a wiggle expression?

UPDATE this is only the case on the Windows side of my machine (I run boot camp on a mac cylinder) if i boot to the mac side it plays fine.

Unfortunately my client has requested that the projects be kept on the Windows side of the machine so that they can go back and forth easily.

ANyone have any ideas?

I do but it doesn’t seem to work. Unless I move the cursor on the audio scrub in the small thumbnail.

Unless i specifically click on the little scrubber it won’t play.

[Matt Chapman]

Does anyone know if this is an option that can be turned off?

Irritating that if i include an audio track and even make a base mix keyframe on it to bring it down I then cannot edit anymore from there on the audio track.

[Matt Chapman]

UGH, this is really annoying. Happens all the time, is there a setting that can be changed?
