Border around transitions

[sascho]

For a number of standard 3D transitions in Edius there is a border showing the previous clip until the transition is completed. Not an issue if you watch the results on a TV but it's visible if watched on a laptop or flatscreen. Is there a way to get rid of this? Browsing through the settings I couldn't find anything.

This is the overscan area and can be turned off by selecting the transition and going to the general tab and uncheck the overscan handeling

OR

By going into the programme settings EDIUS 4.5 and alter overscan area to 0%

I think you will find a setting in the transition called overscan (I have not edited for some months and am not in front of the editing suite at the moment), either that or you can choose to crop in procoder.

It's a very annoying thing that's appeared in the transitions for as long as I can remeber. It really makes me wonder why anyone would want to see the border and why it isn't turned off by default.

If your transition doesn't compensate for overscan, and is viewed on an older CRT SD TV, the transition placement may appear incorrect. For example, a page peel won't appear to curl up from the edge of the viewable area, but instead, outside it.

It also affects the perceiving timing of the effect, since there's stuff still "going on" but you can't see anything happening.

and the real reason it was invented was so that the black blanking outlines don't become part of the transition when dealing with analogue footage

a page turn with a thick black outline does not look good

I have had this issue pop up recently on letterboxed and computer playback.
It is mostly within the SMPTE effects.
Here is the thread that was from last week.
