I'll "pray tell you" that it's a transition to a different video track (i.e. transition to no video in that track). Say I have 2 video tracks, one main track and one overlay track. The main track has all my video data and the overlay track has short bits. I want to transition into each of the short bits. No problem transitioning into them, but I can't transition out of them since transitions can't be attached to the end of an edit. That make sense? > >You can always append a still PNG to the track to make the transition work. A PNG is one frame. A transition that lasts 1 frame isn't that useful to me...anyway, a "fake" secondary edit won't work because the transition depends on the last edit's data still being available past the end of the edit. In my case it isn't since I use a reframe effect that isn't extended into the next track (if I do extend it into the next track, it overlays the effect). I really don't want to have to render all these short video edits to disk just because I can't put a transition at the end of an edit... -- Dan Streetman [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------- 186,272 miles per second: It isn't just a good idea, it's the law! _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list Cinelerra@skolelinux.no https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
