Seeping Through Black

I didn't apply any channel effects to Track 1. If I did, and I were to turn off Track one though, how would it affect anything else. It's off.

You're using Premiere CS3 aren't you?

Rick click the video clips under it and turn off frame blending. By default CS3 applies frame blending to ever cut. I have yet to figure out how to disable this BS.

Originally, I thought that was the problem too. Then I realized it couldn't be. When I bring a clip into Premiere, I bring the whole episode, movie, wutever, and the first thing I do is turn frame blending off. Then, I cut the clip into a bunch of different sections which I edit with.

Did you turn frame blending off on the black also?

Non-video clips don't have that option.

Call me crazy (or rusty, it's been a loooooong time since I've been here

) but wouldn't a better option just be changing the opacity of the clip on video 1 and 2 instead? Considering that the default background for 0 opacity is black (as there's technically no input/output for a 0 opacity frame)?

Like I said, I could be wrong. I need to dust off the cobwebs and get back into the game, but I appear to have lost my muse

I know what this is. It's Premiere doing a dumb job of interpolating. If you want a clip to be 100 percent opaque, you have to use two keyframes, one on the frame itself setting it to 100% and on on the next frame ALSO setting it to 100%. That way Premiere doesn't interpolate that first keyframe and nudge it slightly down to say, 99.4% (even though it says it's at 100%). It's pretty dumb but it works.
