Can’t do Dolby DVD from PPro 2.0?
Hi all,
I just ran into this last night. It seems that the
EXPORT to DVD from the PPro2.0 timeline is limited to
MPEG and PWM unless you spend $295 for the encoder.
This seems so strange, because if I have Encore(which I do)
I can output Dolby Digital without having to purchase
the encoder. I thought Premier Pro and Encore used
the same code for DVD creation. I am not trying to
do anything more that stero dolby.Anybody know anymore about this? Did I miss the option?
Thanks

Maybe they use the same code, but it appears dolby digital sound, provided by the Surcode plugin, is limited to 3 trial uses. I ran into this myself last night. It would be nice to have it included in Premiere, but plug-ins cost money, even in bulk. I’ll be going the extra step with Encore if I need the extra space that Dolby will save me over PCM, or if I have to get more sophisticated than Premiere allows me to easily do.
Good luck

Rich,
Yeah, your right, plugins do cost extra, but I was
just under the impression that PPro and Encore shared
this code, and since Encore can create Dolby Digital I
thought it would work in PPro too. Oh well. If I have
something small PCM will work fine.On to ENCORE 2.0(which should be fun to play with anyway)

I’m pretty sure it’s not the same code. The Surcode plugin can create a Dolby Digital 5.1 mix whereas Encore can only create a stereo Dolby mix.

Has anyone tried copying the codec from encore to the premiere directory?
