I don’t know the answer to your question about smooth transition between menus – you might want to head out straight to Adobe Encore forum and ask that question there.
There aren’t too many BD-3D authoring programs; the least expensive among them NetBlender 3D.

Nigel pointed out there is a G-Tech video where Pete Schlatter talks about the card – it’s an Intel reference board (probably a mini-motherboard with a TB chip on it) – which is probably only given to Intel / Apple partners for development purposes.
So the card exists, you just can’t buy it until 2012. 🙂

(I am sure it’d be very easy to make a data-only TB PCIe adapter – but that’s not what Apple wanted – they wanted it all to themselves. How did they dupe Intel into it – beats me. I don’t get it. It’s Intel technology and there are plenty of other copper connector types with the necessary specs – take full-size DP! – why on Earth did they have go exclusive with Apple on it?)

[Andrew Richards] “Do you mean a TB card? Intel has stated they can’t exist. TB controller must live on the motherboard. Do you mean something different?”
That’s what I mean – an add-on TB card. I did see an add-on TB card in Hitachi / G-Tech booth at NAB, and even took a picture of it – but now can’t find it. It looked like a PCIe card plugged into a backplane with lots of PCIe slots, and it had several DP connectors as well as TB ones.

Several possibilities: it’s (1) a bug in Pr itself, (2) system-related, (3) poisoned Pr preferences.
First thing I’d do:
1. Copy a short portion of the timeline onto a new project, possibly different preset, see if the problem(s) recur.
2. Trash Pr preferences.
3. If the above does’t offer any clues, ask your Adobe SI, or anyone else to duplicate that short project on their CS5 system, see if the problem(s) recur. If they don’t, then it could be system related, and not necessarily Pr problem.Alex (DV411)

[Nigel Thompson] “its just a wild piece of tech that may have quite a few possibilities in the future”
True, that. 🙂
That said, I have yet to hear of a working add-on TB PCIe adapter – to me, that is even a bigger roadblock to its acceptance than availability of TB-based storage boxes. What’s the point of having all this wonderful technology when you can’t connect it to a current Mac Pro?
I did see one such prototype adapter at G-Tech booth at NAB. Matrox’ release of a PCIe-to-Tbolt adapters is also reassuring. Expensive though!

I am with Matt on this: it will never happen outside of nutcases, like it will never happen with HDMI-based shared storage. It’s just a different type of a connection and transmission protocol – a marriage of HDMI (well, DisplayPort) and PCIe, that is NOT designed for networking.
What you might see if a TB-to-10GigE adapter, or TB-to-8Gbit-Fiber, or TB-to-PCIe expansion chassis where you can stick multiple HBAs and other PCIe cards.

[George Sey] “From all these comments it looks like the future does not look great for Premiere Pro Production Premium CS5.5”
Beg to disagree: it only looks so for people who already purchased CS5 and for whom the value of the updates and new features does not justify the price. Quite a few CS5 owners will sit this update out – but not all of them.

Congrats on figuring it out.

[Vic Adams] “Maybe it’s power shortage?”
Possibly – I’d try a different system or motherboard. Intensity (Pro) isn’t supposed to get hot.
