default export source range settings

[angelinaf3243323]

When I export media, my default source range was always "sequence in/out" but for some reason it is now "work area." Of course I can change it before exporting but I often forget and export my whole timeline when I don't want to and then have to waste time re-exporting. How do I make it so the default is "sequence in/out" again?

Thanks.

There's a solution on reddit

that is not really a solution. There should never be gaps in the timeline.

Having this same issue when exporting from Premiere 24.5 w/ ME 24.5

Work area is disabled in my timeline. ME only defaults to "work area" in/out for some sequences

Setting an in and out should be the default output. A work area is just when you are working, can be helpful, I don't want to turn that off completely. That can change dynamically, nice. But when the user sets an in and out, they are telling the program what they want. Then when you go to render, the user is not in control, and asssumption is made that the work are is more importnat. Is the user in control?? Please Adobe, this is an issue. As others have said, it can cost re-rendering if you miss that it is set to work area.

And why are you still here? I think everyone posting on this forum is aware of the existance of other NLEs and they have enough reasons not to switch.

Please post something that's actually helpful. Maybe in the Blackmagic forum. I bet there are also unanswered questions, bugs and feature requests, you may have an answer to.

Thanks.
