Can I slip / slide with numerical entry?

Often I need to slip a shot a certain amount. Let's say it's 10min 12 secs and 23 frames.

How would you do this?

Thanks

    Hi Trevor_Asq,

    Often I need to slip a shot a certain amount. Let's say it's 10min 12 secs and 23 frames.

    I'll ask around, but I don't believe that's possible. Would slipping and sliding be any easier if you had JKL control? Here's how to do that: http://blogs.adobe.com/kevinmonahan/2013/01/18/slipping-and-sliding-in-trim-mode-in-premiere-pro-cs6/

    Please create a feature request for your excellent idea. I will help you push for it internally if you do so.

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Hi Kevin

    I find trim mode to be clunky & slow (I edit mainly with AVCI 100 footage) so tend to avoid it. I do use JKL a LOT in Avid, but they have better/faster means of getting into slip/slide/trim.

    The 'slip many' keystrokes work pretty well for scooting through footage, but sometimes I do need to jump minutes at a time.

    i have put the FR in - not for the first time I think. Thanks for pushing it along. I am liking PP a lot these days

    Duly noted. I think you know I was "reaching" anyway. ;-)

    Thanks for popping it in there. I like your request. Keep 'em coming. We need more along these lines.

    Have a good one!

    The amount of slip or slide shows up in the pop-up.  That's the best I know of.

    Yes, shame we can't type +10.12 into that box and have it slip/slide by that amount.
