One last thing: does "Option to control linear colour for GPU cross dissolves and opacity" mean that cross dissolves will finally be smooth (i.e. 0-100% fades instead of a choppy 5-95%)? If so, YES!!!! FINALLY!!
I assume so, but I should ask around before I can say that occurs.
Hi Kevin!
I too would love to know exactly what Steve meant when he said that as well. Interestingly I borrowed a co-worker's laptop that has an approved GPU and I noticed today that when GPU accleration is turned off in my project settings (so it says software only) those cross dissolve/opacity "5-95%" issues do NOT seem to appear in the project window ...BUT they do appear in the project window when GPU acceleration is turned on in the project settings. The opacity issue was also passed on to the exported video in most cases (depending on project and export settings). I know it's only been a short time so far since this little "reveal" but I'm curious if you've been able to ask around yet and find out what exactly Steve meant by his opacity quote above and if the issue I described above (#13 on my list) is resolved.
Like I said before, the new upcoming release looks outstanding. It appears that many of my top 15 are checked off and more. I'm still curious if some of the warp stabilizer issues (#3 and #5 on the list) as well as this opacity issue (#13) on my list above have been addressed but from what I've seen so far Adobe has done an amazing job of not only listening to their customers over the last year but also taking the lead in new and creative ways to expand and streamline the ways in which Premiere and other Adobe programs can be used individually and together. So be sure to thank the engineers for all their hard work. Can't wait!
