I do a lot (/all) of my fade adjustments by moving the keyframes on the white line and I have never had any problems! You seem to be born under a lucky star or at least know very well what you are doing :) Or maybe you are just using the maximum y-zoomed out, so ranges do not overshoot. It is trivial to over/undershoot the ranges, which causes values to wrap... which is naturally not what anyone would ever want (except maybe the spanish inquisition)... Or ... maybe, you are running with your own patch for fader lines not to overshoot? :) Hang on this is audio... (which uses floating point) so the wrapping doesn't figure.  ( I know with the video, I think cin crashes when fading below zero (can't recall) and craps the picture when fading above 100 (and not using floating point-- who does??)  The only explanation i can think of is that Nathan has a keyframe some time away but then he'd see the white line slowly increasing.. Yes I do use my "dodgy" patch that cycles between [0-100, -80db -> 6db, and current] so as to ensure I don't go below 0 or above 100 when adjusting my video fades... Pierre
