    It could just be my end, but it says you don’t have permission to embed it on this domain. Strangely, all the other videos work.

      Go ahead and give it a try now, you caught us before we could fully apply all the necessary settings ;)

    Odd… As soon as I commented on that, it worked, even though I had refreshed the page earlier. Ignore that previous one. I don’t know if this tip is necessary, but maybe for beginners it is. I do have a question though: What’s the difference between “gamma cross” and just “cross”? Thanks.

    I have an observation on this tutorial. You could easily select all files by typing *.png in the file name field and then pressing enter. Of course you can change the extension to match your files’. It is much easier than switching to details view and box-selecting all the files, which may require more than one box-select.

    clicking and dragging or typing *.png is too slow, just simply press A like in any ther part of blender to select all your frames

      Shift + A does not yet work for the file browser in 2.5.

    That’s a nice tip (intro) to the Sequencer.
    Btw, in Blender 2.51 Build 27009, the “select all” key “A” works as mfoxdogg said :)

    @ Wehrdo every tip is needed, especially when presented this well. I wonder how many users even know the sequencer exists?

    @Mike White – I didn’t really know that the Video Sequencer exist until this tutorial.
    Now I know :)

    Hi, thanks for this great tip! BTW: Looks like the openfootage link is broken.

    Thank you for unveiling the options offered by Blender’s less frequently discussed and shown tools, like the sequencer. Similar to Kernon’s tutorials on IPOs or Python scripts. Blender’s potential is just really.. vast. :-)
