Can Dip to Black on final shot

Hi I've been having this problem since the last update. Premiere Pro will not add a Dip to Black at the end of the final shot in a project. All our projects end with a title screen that's a .jpg. There hasn't been a problem for years but now we can't add Dip to Black or any other transition to the end of the final shot. It doesn't matter if it's a .jpg or video. We have made sure that there is enough video at the end of the shot for the transition. There's plenty but it doesn't make any difference. How can we fix this?

Premiere Pro 23.3.01

2019 MacBook Pro

MacOS 11.7.6 BigSur

64gb of RAM

True Dip to Black is best suited as a double sided transition.

I often say this but nobody seems to take any notice of that.

I just tried it in the beta as a single sided transition and it does not work properly.

Adobe might have changed that.

 

If the JPEG has no images underneath, a cross dissolve would do just fine.

You dip to black between media. You Fade to black at the end. It is a distinction that trips up some folks.

 

If you put A dip to black transition there, it fades to Black right in middle of the transition, then immediately fades back from Black to whatever clip/media is on the back side.

Stephen,

 

While true, you can also apply dip to black to a single clip at the end.

 

AM,

 

Just FYI, I had no problem adding dip to black to a jpg. I am on Win10 and 23.3.0. (I assume your 23.3.01 is a typo?)

 

If you don't get this to work, for Ann's suggested workaround, just do it once (2 keyframes, 1-second duration if that is what you want), then right-click in the Effect Controls panel, and "save preset." Then use it just like the transition.

Stan, sure, you can put a dip to black at the end, who's to stop you?  I just tried to describe the purpose of the tool and how it's typically applied. You can apply it to both ends of your EG text files too if you like the Look of the results.    I assume the purpose one would use dip to black on the last piece of media is that they really want to see that fade to black effect twice as fast as the transition icon idicates, right?

As a workaround, keyframe the opacity of a black color matte.

Thanks Ann. We tried doing that. It used to be a simple drag to apply the transition. The keyframe takes a lot more time. I don't understand what changed and why.

Did you try resetting preferences?

Can you show a screenshot of the final shot of the timeline (top to bottom)
