I can't explain your duration distress, but seems like its worth a support ticket with NewBlue.
When you tried to promote the timeline marquee title to New Blue I assume that means you went through and in effects mode highlighted each title then went to the tools menu and choose promote title and select New Blue, which is the only choice I see on my system. I'm asking to make sure I'm not missing another approach to promoting titles. I've only just begun to tinker with New Blue but I haven't found a way to just promote and recreate title in the timeline like I'm ust to in title tool.
On my current 4 K project there are two titles, a slate and a slug for open animation. When I promote the slug it is 15:18 in duration in the timeline it opens in the New Blue interface with a timeline of only around 3 seconds. I have to manually type in the actual duration and then stretch the slug title, which New Blue refers to as a paragraph IIRC, out to fill the duration. Seems like something is wonky there and I don't see the title in the timeline till I close the new blue window and it renders. Where it renders I don't know as I see no clip appear in any bin. With the slate as soon as I promote it to new blue the slate appears in the timeline. I don't understand the different behavior between the two titles.

I noticed that these same titles were crisp when manually re-created in NewBlue Titler Pro. However, when I tried to use the "Promote Titles" to Titler Pro command for the whole sequence, I found that the titles failed to promote. I opened a support ticket with NewBlue to discover that Marquee is not supported to Promote Titles, only Title Tool. However, with this tip I can quickly get the crisp titles across the timeline by turning off the filter.This also solves a conundrum I was having with AvidFX, where the graphics were crisp, but the same graphics were soft when transitioning back to the timeline.

Graphics, even if the software they were created in already made them SD compliant....making them doubly soft. Unless you know about the console command, you just end up with bad fuzzy graphics

WTF: it's 2016, why the heck I would need anyone to comply to SD?
@Marianna: let them coders know: eitther a documented setting or default to "true" - since this is unacceptable!
