1. Adding a Zoom/Pan for the advanced output would make it easier to adjust complicated mappings
2. An option to apply a crop to just a slice instead of the entire screen output
3. My preview window ends up tiny if I adjust the layout to give the decks more screen space. I believe this only happens if I use a monitor that's less than 1080.
4. This is an idea that may or may not be so good from a development standpoint... It'd pretty cool to be able to "compress" multiple clips including the effects into one "compressed clip". Essentially nesting clips within clips. I have a generative, audio responsive deck that has many more layers than I usually use. Right now I have to rearrange the entire comp if I want to use that deck. In addition it might be nice to be able to export a "compressed clip" into a zip file which contains the video clips and all the settings in XML format. This would allow people to trade or transfer them between computers with ease.
5. Auto search function for missing clips... Automatically search my drive for a missing clip and only prompt if more than one file with the same name is found. Sony Vegas’ missing clip search is a good example. The ability to limit searches to a specific directory/drive would speed things up.
6. A decent batch converter would be really nice. I’ve managed to crash all of the common 3rd party apps when converting my 100gig library. Most don’t preserve file structure either. Livid Union’s app has been the best so far, however, I’m willing to pay something that’s better.
