One good application of creating subclips in media pool is for stablizing them before adding to T/L; besides you usually want to "browse"' clips fast - the scrubbing is perfect for this. C'mon - this is my fisrt positive comment about VP14 - don't spoil it for me like that :-)
I could never see the advantage of using the trimmer except to create subclips. Am I missing something now in VP14 ?
No. I never use it either. I do everything on the timeline.
Nick - especially with full-fledged preview card like Decklink, comparing originals to grades is so much easier on full screen rather than dividing preview monitor...
I deleted my comment that you've quoted (but should have edited it instead) as I realised that I had overlooked the new "trimmer scrubber" feature. I will check it out. Thanks for the heads up.
