We did this last year Jerry and you beat it to death then. Scene
detection works well for the rest of us. You banging on about how
the pros do it won't change that.

Until you realise it's limitations....

I know the limitations, and if I ever have the need to do so, I will
work around them. No-one said it was the best solution for all
situations.

The fact is, scene detection is rarely the best solution, other than
if only 'playing' at the art of film editing.....

LOL.

If all you want to do is cut out the bad bits, add a few transitions
and add a voice over track then OK, but if you're making a something
more complex film I really don't see how it helps or saves time - IMO
it's more likely to cause problems than solve them.

Perhaps you're an old hat stuck in his merry ways? Or maybe you're just
too "Pro" for us. It's a small wonder you came back here from your pro
newsgroup. What happened there?
