Hello friends,
I have previously inquired about the "peek-through" glitch present with some transitions after a downconvert process from HDV. Unfortunately, I have just discovered this in 4x3 SD projects viewed in Windows Movie Maker. (Now that I have finally endeavored into YouTube posting.)
My procedure was Finish to DV tape (Canon HV-20 in DV mode) then load via firewire into the desktop. I would have skipped the camera stage if I had a 12-foot cable !
The list of undesirable Transistion FX is lengthy, including PC Cube, Melt, Turnover, and Z-1 PageTurn. The safe ones appear to be Crossfade, Pattern Fade and VME Compact (various).
I am still using SE 6.2c - I am finishing old projects prior to the clean-install of SE 7.
Any ideas? Calling all wizards ... Chet, Lou, Tim, et al.

Thanks, Robert Carpentier

I just tested some of your transitions and am having no problems in SE7. I assume, you are advising about the bleed-through on some transitions. In SE 7 there was a fix for some of these. M3DX 2-sided in not one of them and I am sure there are probably others depending on configuration and length. The good news is that this is a reported issue.

Thanks for your input, Lou. I have re-edited the project in the Reno + with only the "safe" transitions, then uploaded to Windows Movie Maker with a successful result. YouTube is another story - which I will only briefly mention. The minute-and-a-half .avi file finally loaded but won't display within CarpentierProVideo. I will inquire about this on a non-Casablanca Board index.
