Long time fan and advocate for the Legacy Titler but I have been away from Premiere for about five years and things have happened.   Thought I better give Essential Graphics a  fairtrial run and explore and see how it would have fitted into my well established work flows...mostly in the post production of TV Commmercial spots. ie graphic and images.   I usually worked with a client art director/ designer in the room at this point FWIW   So a basic easy start...how do I get super imposed  letters over my video frame?   From the Edit Work space I simply select the T Icon and click it on the Program Monitor. Yes I can type on Text and it appears directly on the sequence above my video frame. So far so good.   Now I need attributes for the text so ...I guess I open Essential Graphics Pane...Whats this. BROWSE TEMPLATES...huh?...art director looks at me!!! Oh...there is an EDIT Button...oh...ok....Yep ...confusing...but that works   Now I probably need some controls...EFX Control Window and keyframes maybe. Yep that works.   Ok leave it there for now and do the next graphic...and so on...   Thing is...where is my Title Asset in the Project when we want to revisit, duplicate, modify, do an alternative based on same title, use in an alternative edit/ project....... Reveal in Project (greyed out)   Might have missed something...but I never had a graphic I could not achieve in Premiere Legacy, Photoshop,, AEFX from a blank video frame.   Maybe I am too Legacy myself to work without assets in Bins or Project but it was common for me to stack graphics, titles, logos all from different asests and sources.  PSDs, AEX, PNG, Premiere Titler...etc   Question...why is it called ESSENTIAL GRAPHICS? Meaningless to me.     ... View more

I would  create a sub clip or sub sequence of the scenes...make my CC and Grade and use those in the edit. Exporting and reimporting is also no big deal.   If you have After Effects you can key the clip on the green screen ....then export it with an alpha channel  and use that as your source clip. THat would allow you to cc BG and Overlay clip separately.   I dont think you can export with alpha in PPRO but maybe you can export with an alpha mask only. ... View more

Just FWIW   I had not used Premiere Pro for six years until last week when I down loaded a TRIAL to see if legacy projects would work for some  edit revisions.  Prior  to that...long time professional user.   I had no issues with Import or Export Interfaces at all despite them looking a little unfamiliar.  I would consider that they were intuitive and very easy to use. The Export Interface also has easily accessed additional options that you can drill into.   I noticed that Media Encoder and Export Media are still available options.  One from the Export Window and the other from the File Menu respectively.  Might help you and there is most likely a tutorial available.     ...

I have been reading the various solutions and fixes to the MME Internal Device issue. ( which I am currently experiencing)   My question.... Does this issue also create  an irritating loud audible "bing bong" sound thru the speakers. It sounds like a notification sound.   It is not coming from an online source.   SOLVED. 1. Turned off INPUT in Hardware Device Options 2. Bing Bong sound is System Sounds for Connect / Disconnect ie plugs in the sound card.  I set Systems Sound for these to NONE ... View more

That is what a Ripple Edit does. ie It closes the gap by bringing the trailing  clips forward to meet the prior clips . Its logical when you think about it. The start time is a constant reference. ... View more

Although..not usually source files...I frequently use PPros Offline Media >Delete... to remove files from my HDD.

No idea why the luma should jump if it "actually" was in range for export.  OE maybe ? Try LEVELS EFFECT Apply it and check that the program maxs at 100% (It should auto limit at 100 IRE) Try Setting  White to 95% and see what scopes indicate through program. Visual Difference of 95 or 100 are un discernible by eye and I usually legalise at 95% for PAL TV Broadcast. I tested PPRO Video Limiters and found them to be NASTY. Never used them ever again since testing them and never had a QC fail. ... View more
