Re: [Avid-L2] MC5, some small stuff

*What I'd like to see is a plugin on the shot (sort of automatically applied
like the motion adapters for mixed framerates) that I could modify and
select shift the anchor point. And it's that workflow that I could see being
the way in to larger-than-frame stuff - have the reformat mode set to
"original size" and then step into it on the timeline to modify the viewport
on it.*
*
*
*That's was I was asking for. Put that option on my whishlist for MC5.5.*
