Strange transition problem

[mavnick]

This is a new one on me:
I have been putting together several clips one one time line (as I have for over the last 8 years using Canopus/GV products exclusively). When I make a simple transition or dissolve I get a blue screen in my timeline! In the information pallette I get the message that "this transition does not have a set up". So, no matter what transition I use it disolves from a blue screen to the video and back out. Any suggestions? Thanks!

that is indeed a strange one

does it also happen if you start a new project?

does it happen if you place cursor between 2 touching clips and press Alt+1?

If you apply the transition to the keyer track of one clip (instead of putting between two adjoining clips) like AB style editing, does the same thing happen?

I've seen this. I found that if I click away from the transition then click on the transition I am able to open the properties for the transition. It's as if the transition looses the focus when applied.

Strange Transition Behaviour

Thanks for all the input.
What I discovered was that even though I had "cut" the 5 second leader footage from the clip, it kept including it in the transition. What I ended up doing was cutting an additional 5 seconds from the original clip to get rid of the intro blue footage. I guess I never had any 5 second leader footage to deal with before. I could also just rename the cut clip and try it that way. All is good now.
