CS4 – Love at First Sight!
The ability to open the new Media Encoder, and without opening a Premiere project, select a sequence from within a Premiere project, add to the batch for media encoding, is magical.
Sequences with different codecs in the same project is a nice addition too.
Well done Adobe.

Yes – I love the media encoder – being able to send 10 renders to the encoder and go to bed is great thing. (Staying up all night to get the renders out in time – a thing of the past!)
Overall – I like CS4 better then CS3. Still a bit quirky, but so far (1 month) CS4 has crashed MUCH less than CS3.

I got CS4 to crash by changing the display settings while CS4 was open. Probably should not do that.
I always wondered why Adobe got rid of batch encoding in the PRO version. We continued to use 6.5 for years just for batch processing.

CS4 and I just had our first fight. It seems to export a still frame, you now need to use the Media Encoder, select an output location and hit start queue, and then import the file into Premiere if you need it. In all previous versions it was one key combination and you were done. What’s up with this?!
CS4 is sleeping on the couch tonight!
Nice one Adobe.

It’s a matter of the export pipeline being optimized to the Media Encoder…
Not my favorite compromise by any means…but every time I do a batch process of PPro sequences, AE comps and clip conversions…I feel a little better.

it is just a matter of getting used to it. According to the now concluded election, Change is a good thing!
