What´s new in Media Composer v.4

There are many new things in Media Composer v. 4 her are some of them:

Easier number entry on laptops.


Hit the Control key twice and you can use the number rows, this is perfect if you are working on a laptop

16 tracks in the audio mixer
This is great, now you can see all the tracks you can play, that was about time :-)

Transition Preservation.


There are 3 new things when working in the timeline:
⁃ When moving clips around in segment mode you keep you dissolves.
⁃ You can edit from one segment to another, and now you can do it even with a dissolve involved (before you got and error message).

Auto-cropping in the stabilize effect


Now it is automaticly, before you need to teel the effect to do it.

To reattahch a dissolve
,
you can drag the edge of a clip over the dissolve.

Control the multi Cam from the numeric key pad.
This is more intuitive to do.

Mix and Match
This makes it possible to mix different frame rates in the timeline, this works great!
