  1. The three color channel curves in the waveform are white by default. Do you know how to set them to red, green and blue? I have seen that it's possible in some videos online.

  2. I have generated a grey scale but it's not possible to click the clip in the timeline. Is this a bug? It doesn't have a thumb either, just a track line next to V1. The other strange thing is that it's only visible on the timeline if I have another clip on the timeline as well (but still not clickable). The other clip has a visible thumb and is visible.

  3. Can't you just ingest the clips you need and switch to high rez when the edit is set? Then you will be able to work with low rez media and have all the handles you want available. 

  4. What do you like about this? Most of it looks like straight out of cam, many bad balanced clips, the saturation levels are jumping all over. This is not colored by a professional and it's nothing that can't be recreated in two clicks here. A couple of basic tutorials would get you to a level that let you judge these clips yourselves.

  5. I'm a long time Avid user but are learning Premiere. I'm trying to figure out how to get more control over the imported clips. I can't find any global import settings or detailed settings in the interpret option of each clip.

    To be specific;

    • In Avid I can choose the source levels such as RGB or rec709 so that I can make sure that the clips will be interpreted as rec709 if that is what I want. Do I have this control in Premiere?
    • I also want to decide to import my clips "untouched". In Avid I can choose to not touch an image when importing or scale it to fit. 
    • How does it treat Alpha channel import? Can I choose to invert or ignore alpha?

  6. I don't understand what they are thinking... One core feature in stabilizing is to be able to manually add and remove tracking points. That option is like Bruno says only available in the classic stabilizer. It can be a slow process but it's worth the effort most times.

    Personally, I tend to go to After Effects' warp stabilizer as it often gives more pleasing results.
