Yup. Them cuts really push Premiere to the limit.
This is why I'm seriously looking forward to an upcoming Final Cut Pro
seminar, and some hands-on work with DV coming up soon.
I cut eight videos from 30-60 minutes on an 840av with P4 (and the
interminable sync slip) so P5 is generations better in comparison... but it
still seems to have underlying problems doing what we consider
requirements... playing two clips side by side without inserting phandom
frames.
As i've mentioned before... zoom down to the frame level where you see
these phantom frames and see if the two clips have a one frame space in
between them in the time line. This was the cause of most of my visual
oddities in P5.
Now that the majority of the code is cross platform, so are the
problems. :)
