    Thanks Jeremy. Downloaded and installed the two updates plus a firmware update and no joy. I can now see the AJA options but PPRO crashes and shuts down anytime I try to address the AJA LHi card – new project setup, capture, batch capture dialogues.

    Any ideas??

    Yeah, you know what? I think you’re right. CS4 and the LHi aren’t quite working yet.

    Perhaps try contacting AJA tomorrow.

    It’s a definite no-go at this point in time. Tried on 4 systems.

    I’m pretty sure the problem here is Adobe. We’re waiting on the 4.1 drivers to release. One of the key features of this update is better 3rd party hardware integration support.

    We’re also hearing from our hardware vendors that Premiere Pro in general is working much better on the PC side then the Mac side right now, especially with regards to I/O hardware. Once again, the 4.1 release is supposed to resolve this.

    Spoke to Adobe yesterday, good news is 4.1 is “any day now”.

    Man, there’s always something!

    Why would AJA post drivers and utilities for CS4 when they can’t work based on the status of the Adobe software?? That’s a bit frustrating.I really hope “any day” means tomorrow ’cause I have 100 greenscreen scenes I want to bring over from AXIO machines (CS3) and key in CS4 on my new LHi powered MACS……
