[quote user="andi_t"] It's beyond ludicrous that I need to use Adobe Premiere or After Effects to create a simple static lower third or end credits that won't crash my computer or take me half an hour just to adjust the kerning. Please!!! [/quote] Premiere or After Effects for static titles!? Heck, just use Photoshop.

I can kinda, sorta see Avid's point that if they simply updated the old title tool functionality to 64bit we'd all be here complaining about all the things it doesn't do. Look how far we've come that we're wishing for that. /s

A couple of random thoughts. Yes, I would love to see easier migration between the two as well. Bruno M said: "Can you open a Premiere project in FCP? Or a Davinci Resolve project in Baselight?" I don't know about Baselight, but there's a lot of compatibility between FCP, Premiere and Resolve projects using FCP7 xml protocols. It would

You can certainly output your entire sequence from After Effects rather than Avid, but it's clunkier because AE puts every single edit on its own track. When you render out a single-stream output from AE, you then have to do cut detection in Resolve to break it up again -- and the footage can't be traced back to its source. It's certainly

Be sure the sync locks are on for all tracks you want extracted.

It depends. Your scenario, as I understand it, you have done your basic edit in Avid, are doing VFX on a few shots in AE, completing your edit in Avid and going to Resolve to finish. Is that not correct? That is probably the most common way to do it. In any case, unless you are using Premiere, After Effects comps have to be rendered as a new piece of

Generally you can AAF sequences from Avid to AE. Try to keep the sub-sequences closely trimmed so you don't end up with hundreds of unnecessary layers in your AE comp. The whole point of AE its to do complex effects, so you will almost always want to export your AE comps as individual high-quality clips which can be used in either Avid or Resolve

I don't disagree with any of the complaints about Frameflex in this thread. That said, it has been a godsend for me. A lot of my work involves doing moves on stills and artwork and Frameflex lets me do it quickly with the ability to easily make changes. I've never quantified it but I'm sure I do upwards of 90% of that kind of work with Frameflex

The best solution of course is to recapture -- hopefully it's nothing worse than clogged heads. If you're in a crunch, some of the timewarp options will allow you to output the single field to both. You lose vertical resolution, obviously, but it's less annoying than watching static.

Your issue is that every other field has interference. As you know, Avid only displays a single field in normal editing mode. If you go into your settings under full screen playback and tick the 'show both fields" box, and then play in fullscreen mode you will see the same problem. It will also show if you simply advance by field rather than
