  RE: Collaboration with Premiere Pro editors - best export/import settings
  @Craigster Hi IIRC mp3 compression is a constant compression technique the only thing that changes the compression ratio is the bitrate - which is not as complex like video which requires more complex techniques then audio to maintain quality. . . .

  RE: Collaboration with Premiere Pro editors - best export/import settings
    That depends on what the edit/render cycle is - these files are a compressed format and every time you re-render them you lose a bit of quality.   This gets to the heart of what I wanted confirmation on. I'm an audio guy. I know what I'm dealing

  Collaboration with Premiere Pro editors - best export/import settings
  In this "stay at home" Covid-19 era, I am working in VPX while my primary collaborators have Adobe Premiere Pro. We have been exchanging files back and forth, exporting as MP4, full HD (1080i, 1920x1080, 29.97), via h.264. Is this optimal? Is this

  RE: Why are videos suddenly shortened by x seconds
  @FF22 Hi Do you get any messages about gaps when exporting gaps? Are you mixing different frame rate mode video, ie variable frame rate (Pixel video?) with constant frame rate video (Panasonic & Osmo?) and also at different frame rates? If so

  RE: Phantom audio "track" or some audio remnant.

  RE: Moving/slotting images and transitions in Timeline Mode
  @FF22 Unless you have a simple project with mostly just photos, no music, no overlays (PiP), few titles, do not use Storyboard mode, use Timeline mode. You have to be able to see what you are editing. I have audio and video on separate tracks. I

  RE: Audio sample is added automatically--annoying
