Total newbie question about premiere pro

Tis is actually a lot better than WMM's auto-cut, becauseyou choose exactly where to cut, when and how and it's easier to stay organized.

You can choose where to cut in wmm...you just go to a place you want to cut it and hit the split button. The benefit of this is if you're working with large files that are 30 minutes long, and several of them, you don't have to work by memory or notes as far as the clips you have available for a certain sequence in the movie. You can just select the smaller clip in your media library thing and see if it works.

I guess if you don't cut the files w/ vdubmod first, you'd have to reset the in and out points to a clip of a 30 minute episode every time you wanted to see if it worked, which could become a pain.

I'm slightly confused by your words.

You only have to reset the in and out points when you want a new clip of a new section. You'd be doing the same thing in virtual dub anyway. But this way you have more flexibility. The only reason to use vdub first would be if you had space issues on your hard drive.

Whenever I'm editing I tend to use one or two video tracks as dumping grounds where I put all the clips I might use. It means I can see a quick image reminding me what they were.

(Keyboard shortcuts are a wonderful thing and I wish I knew more of them.)

I hate them because I don't have a numpad. AE's render shortcut was not made for laptop users... *sigh*

Yes, instead you have to remember which clip you want to cut. And you can't choose where to cut in WMM with precision. The timeline goes by seconds, not frames. That means you can't be specific. Plus, if the scene you want happens to have been split apart by the autocut, you now have to go around making a collage for something that should already be together in the first place.

trail and error scene selection? pre-made smaller clips maybe make it easier to do that, its definitly seems to be user friendlier option. but whether it actually easier to just simply skim through a large Clip and selecting the scenes as you go along seems a bit of a stretch to me.

I personally found it easier to "skim through" and select my in and out points.

Then again, I've never liked WMM.

Premiere was definitely easier to learn, for me at least.
