HINT - how to turn off frame blending
Before you start putting clips on the timeline, select your video clips and go to clip->video options->frame blending.
From now on, any part of this clip that you put on the timeline will have frame blending turned off. Stumbled upon it by chance today, but I believe this might be helpful to many people here. Remember, do this before you start editing :) |

The same goes for deinterlacing. But why Premiere doesn't allow this for multiple clips on timeline I'll never understand.
Thanks for useful tip Bart! |

I'm curious about this as well. What are the advantages/disadvantages of turning this on or off?

Frame blending also seems to help in certain situations where a clip's speed has been decreased. -Ben |

I was under the impression that frame blending only applies to clips that have speed changes, and doesn't affect clips playing at normal speed. I haven't noticed a difference with it on or off with my 24F footage. Maybe I need to look again. Thanks for the tip.

Yep, a little further digging shows Adobe's assertion that this only applies when changing speed.
http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Prem...8aef7-7cd8.htm http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Prem...aef7-7d15.html But I'm still not sure why it should be turned off, even in 24p mode, if you're not changing speeds. |

I find that "Frame Blending" enabled seriously slows down render times..
Crisp footage takes a serious hit, never mind choosing deinterlacing method. For me, personally, it's hit and miss, and i only check it if i absolutely have to. All my interlaced footage is monitored through a broadcast CRT. Depending on the speed change and camera movement, Frame blending might be required. Otherwise, i've noticed that having Frame blend unchecked, gives me cleaner results.. |

When you try putting 50p footage on 50i timeline, you will understand why you need to turn off the frame blending... :)
Plus it does make rendering time about 4x as long as without it. |

Yes, if you're just working with normal 60i, no need to turn off frame blending. |

Would this have anything to do with slower render times in a DV 24p timeline?

If you're using native 24p footage, unlikely, but why don't you simply check it out :)
