What Kind of Compatibility between elements & 2.0?
Posted by Richard Milner on January 20, 2006 at 5:32 pmSupposedly one of the new features is that you can take a project that was started in elements and bring it over to PPRo 2.0.
What are the ground rules for doing so? Does it track roll #’s and TC( both drop & non -Drop)?
Does Bridge work with elements?

January 20, 2006 at 7:42 pmPremiere Elements and Bridge don’t have any kind of interactivity that I know of.
Bridge is basically a file browsing utility. It has features for metadata, and some interaction with other Adobe programs (it can initiate some automated process for Photoshop CS2, for example), but it’s not any sort of Swiss army knife type of program. What exactly are you thinking that it would do?

I read that too. Wish I could find it again. My recollection is that you could open Elements projects with Pro. But I could be dreaming too.

Does elements use timecode if it is on the tape?

January 23, 2006 at 9:52 pmYes, Elements captures timecode data just like Premiere Pro. They use the same capture engine. (Most of the differences between the programs are in the interface and the features. Very little of what makes the programs tick is different.)
