Premiere Pro 2 and Windows Remote Desktop
Has anyone successfully used Windows Remote Desktop from a home computer to access Premiere Pro 2 on an office computer?
If so, was it through an unusual configuration of Remote Desktop? -

I wouldn’t even attempt it, just because the experience is going to be horrible. Also, not many internet connections can handle that kind of bandwidth, so editing remotely may lead to a lot of mistakes.

The connection bandwidth is not really much of a problem (if you have DSL or Cable). All you’re doing remotely is controlling the editing system … all the data is local to that system.
I run Premiere Pro (both CS2 and CS3) on office systems from home routinely. I use a program called LogMeIn (the free version). I also use it to take control of client computers and do the same thing remotely for diagnostic purposes.
LogMeIn does reduce the color space, however, so you’re not going to be able to accurately handle image quality issues. It certainly works for rough cuts tho … as long as you don’t mind a slight “lag” in responsiveness.

Yes, I do this from time to time. However, in the Options, in the Local Resources tab, you should set Remote computer sound to “Leave at remote computer”.

The “Leave at remote computer” setting works to get video playback, but now there is no audio.
Does anyone know how to use an RDC with Premiere for both audio and video, or is there a more current thread on this subject? I am using Premiere CS4 via remote desktop and having similar issues.
