Not yet, but it’s been half a day since I mailed them.
As an alternative I’m looking at the Morgan MJPEG, which encodes fine, thanks to the
additional quick config panel. However, once I import an avi with this codec into premiere cs4, the video looks bad. (green and purple, like there is some RGB/YUV conflict)
The avi plays fine in vdub, and plays back in premiere on the timeline, but can’t do anything else with it, or it will show up green and purple in the timeline as well.It’s 3 am now, so my head is not exactly fresh anymore, we’ll see how it goes in the morning. Thanks so far 🙂

Indeed, but this document, which was already on my desk, dates from when XP was fancy new. Do we need to install XP on old pc and use that for encoding?
In XP, one was able to set codec defaults in the Device Manager. Is this control feature completely gone from Vista and 7? -
Hi Daniel,
So there is no way to enter the desired codec settings anywhere with this thing unless you use the codec in a GUI based app or write your own code with the sdk?

Hi Bram,
You are definitely not alone in your findings.
On my system (XP64, dual Xeon 5345, 8GB Kingston DDR2 and an 8-disk raid5 set) the Media Encoder is running extremely slow. Virtualdub in full processing mode converts HD1080 uncompressed to PAL-DV avi in realtime. A simple 3-layer 5-minute edit in Pr. CS4, using only DV-PAL avi files, a render to Quicktime H264 half-PAL takes over an hour.
I’m glad I don’t have to babysit this, just let my 26 episodes run throughout the weekend.
I’m not using any specialized hardware, just desktop mode editing.
Have you found any useful information?
Has anyone found a way to speed things up?Cheers!

Hi Joe,
I got it to work, but I still don’t get why it didn’t work before.
I’m working in CS3, and the issue appears both in the preview, on the burnt disc and when viewed from the built output folder.
The transition is a 1.422 uncompressed avi that is replacing a previous transition with the same name, but has a different length.
I cleared the entire cache database, which didn’t resolve the issue, then I closed the project, renamed the avi file, imported that and pointed the button transition to this new avi. Now it’s working like it did before I created the new transition.
Hope it’s some help to others struggling with this.
I’d still like to know what caused this issue so I know how to avoid it.
Cheers!

Have you ever solved this problem?.. I’m getting exactly what you have (had). Cheers!

back to part of the subject, i’m having difficulties getting my decklink pci to work with my tyan s2696 (intel 5000 chipset) in either the 32bit 33mhz pci slot or the 64bit pci-x 133. I’ve tried xp64, i’m now going back to 32bit to test, but no luck as of yet. (64bit driver 6.1)
Does anybody know if this is a driver issue, bios setting or hardware compatibility problem?
If it’s hardware compatibility would getting a decklink pci-e solve this?specs: tyan s2696, single quad xeon 2.33, 4g ram, areca arc-1120 with 8 250g sata2 seagate drives.
