Prem Pro 2.0 and MPG4 and Dream system?

[Tim Kolb]

QT Pro costs 29.95…that’s how I’m going to MP4. It’s not fast, but it sure is clean.

I’d go with a dual Opteron…I suppose ideal conditions would be a dual processor/dual core Opteron system. That would be the fastest as of today I think…

Hi Tim,

Thanks, thats what I’m doing (along with trying a few other tools, like IMToo which is really fast! and not many visible hits on the vid. quality….I wonder how they do that?) Anyhow I was hoping to bypass the export QT step in Prem. Pro and go striaght to IPOD – anyone else know if new Prem Pro 2 will do this?

Alex

oh and thanks for dream machine suggestion, I was also wondering if an AJA or other proc/board would speed up Premier.

– sorry lots of q’s in there!

If money is no object, I use Matrox Axio with PPro 2.0 and it speeds things up tremendously. Haven’t tackled MPEG4 outputs yet but outputting a 42 minute Sequence to MPEG2 for DVD renders out in about 18 minutes with Axio on my Dual Core HPxw9300.

I have already started shopping for my dual processor dual core system. It looks like I can do it for under $6K and get what I really want. First things first. I have two books to edit and one to rewrite. After that, the money will be there to get my new toys.

But my wife surprised me the other day. I showed her the pictures of the Sony HC1 as I was reviewing the HandsOnHDV DVD, and she wanted to know why I had not bought one yet. As I picked my jaw up off of the floor, I decided it was time to shop for a new PC instead.
