remove any crossfade between specific clips

[John Crix]

I'm new here, so apologies if I'm missing the obvious or failing to find a known workaround.

Here's the situation:
I have one layer of clips, A,B,C,D,E,F... which I shall trigger manually, in sequence. I've set the layer level Transition parameters to Blend Mode = Add, Duration = 1.5 seconds - i.e. a simple 1.5 second crossfade.

This is exactly as I want it for most of the layer, except that I want clip D to automatically follow clip C without my having to trigger it manually. Clip C is not a loop so I've set its Transport parameter to Play Once & Clear, and Autopilot to Play Next Clip. This is fine, except that I don't want any transition at all between clips C and D - i.e. I want the movie edit equivalent of a jump cut, I want frame 1 of clip D to immediately follow the last frame of clip C, without any fading or whatever.

My problem is that I don't seem to be able to get rid of the crossfade.

I've tried putting clips C and D in their own layer, but this means clip B persists when I trigger C. I've also tried various clip level Blend Modes in C and D - but to no avail.

Searching the forum I found this: https://resolume.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13532 from 2012. I'm wondering if this is my problem. If it is, I can't seem to get the workaround to work - but will try harder if someone can confirm that this is my only solution.

thanks for your attention

John

Sounds like you'd need to set the layer transition time back to 0 for these clips.
