In the comercial apps this idea is implemented in Pinnacle HollywoodFX, Canopus Video FX and canopus SoftXplode.

His intention is to use pre-designed transition templates for rendering via command line and use the resultin strips in open media editor. His idea is to create a kind of "Hollywood FX" for free editing packages. Allan:

Just as you wouldn't end every sentence in a newspaper with an exclamation point, you don't use fancy transitions for every transition either. You use them conservatively. They help make certain parts jump out and others not to. Here's two great videos from Digital Juice about transitions and cuts (i know it's a little offtopic, but definitely worth the watch if you ever plan to edit video): Transitions: http://www.digitaljuice.com/djtv/segment_detail.asp?sid=167&searchid=38773 Cuts: http://www.digitaljuice.com/djtv/segment_detail.asp?sid=131&searchid=38774 Not true, Felix, fancy transitions are like exclamation points.
