NESTING. nesting. Come on. nesting.

Any visual effect or transition I apply to a nested sequence renders the layers (inside the nest) beneath the top nested layer transparent for the duration of the transition/effect. So if I'm doing a simple nest of two of the same image that don't fit the frame, and the bottom image is scaled up and blurred behind the image to fill the frame, if I nest them and then try to, say, cross dissolve into another clip, the blurred background image disappears and its just the top image (which obviously looks horrible).

 

Anyone else?

Make sure the bottom layer has sufficient handles to include the additional duration of the transition you are using.

The Nest only sees the clips it contains length as it is when you make the nest, it does not reference the original source media length.

Double click on the nest in your sequence, and when the nest opens, try extending the head and tail trim of the bottom layer.

    Thanks for the response, yeah that would be a legitimate reason why that would happen, but in this case it's not. There are a bevy of issues with nesting in this iteration of Premiere, this one is particularly frustrating.
