Re: Avid Free DV - Transitions



I use Newtek's Toaster because it does uncompressed video and the interface is so friggin amazing
and intuitive. That said, I got by with Premiere for awhile. WHen I tried Avid, I couldnt stand it.
Nothing intuitive about it. I would never use it. I have been working in real time (no rendering
whatsoever) for over 4 years now and can get over 8 layers of video all in realtime.

It isnt you. It's Avid.

Hi,

I am just trying out Avid Free DV for the first time. Previously I
have used Video Deluxe 2.0 and Adobe Premiere Pro Tryout. I have
footage from the Monterey Historic Auto Races near Monterey CA. I have
captured the video into Avid using a Canopus ADVC 110 from an Analog
video camera that uses VHS-C tapes.

How exactly do you view Transitions. I rendered a simple dissolve to
try out the program. I can't get the dissolve to show more than 1
second of transition which when played in realtime does not show as a
transition at all. Is this a limitation of Advid Free DV. So far I
don't think Avid is as easy to use as Adobe Premiere. I think Video
Deluxe is pretty good software for costing me only $10 US. It works
without crashing on my computer.

Thanks,

John
