1. Re: Gaussian Blur keyframes on timeline - RIDICULOUS scaling
Ann Bens Jul 9, 2013 1:55 PM (in response to danzg)I think you need to reinstall the programm (also due to the fact you have the default audio transtion problem.)
Gaussian Blur does not have a range of 30.000.

danzg Jul 9, 2013 1:57 PM (in response to Ann Bens)Reinstall ... like uninstall from cloud center?
Maybe it's because I have CS6 and CC installed at the same time ...

Ann Bens Jul 9, 2013 2:01 PM (in response to danzg)Sorry I spoke to soon. It does do 30.000.
this is a bug (I think)
Stick to keyframes in the Effect Controls.

jstrawn Jul 9, 2013 2:09 PM (in response to danzg)He's talking about using the rubberband keyframe UI from within a clip in the timeline. If you apply gaussian blur, click the effects icon (in the clip header) then set the effect display to Gausiian Blur > Blurriness, then you can drag the line up to the top which will indeed show a value of 30000.
It happens this way because the timeline's rubberband UI is not optimized to control each and every effect parameter in the ideal way. Some value has to be chosen as a max for the rubberband to display and that max does nto always match what the user would do. But your problem is valid, and the need for improved effects controls has been heard. Please do submit your own feature request for it though if you want.
The workwround is to use the effects controls panel's paremeter hot text, which is not confined by a vertical ceiling. This is the ideal method for full control over applied effect. In my experience, the rubberbands work best for things like volume, speed and opacity, where there's as many variables, and you just need a way to visualize the ups and downs.

danzg Jul 9, 2013 2:50 PM (in response to jstrawn)The 'range' on the timeline simply reflects the range of a given effect parameter in the effect control panel.
The Gaussian Blur effect should simply not have such a wide range. Better, it should be editable (like in AE).
0-200 would be plenty.

I absolutely agree. It could be treated as an individual bug and just addressed for that one effect parameter. But there are other cases when the rubberband ceiling is not in harmony with real world use, so it really shoudl be looked at at a higher level across all effects. That's why I suggested submitting a feature request if anything. The idea of an editable paremeter limit is especially request-worthy, IMO.
