have you tried adding /3GB extension to the last line of your boot.ini file?

My system was really unstable (similar to yours) and now after adding this it works well.

I have XP not Vista 32 so it may pay to check first before doing. Also backup your existing file before changing.

Example below from my boot.ini

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)WINDOWS=”Microsoft Windows XP Professional” /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /3GB

cheers

You could also look into Edius Procoder if it’s still around. From memory you can edit an mpeg then save out in the same format without recompression.

I have to agree with Vince on this one.

If I want to pan photos I use AE then export as a quicktime. In AE you can animate the anchor point rather than just position which gives a better result in my opinion. Doing it this way should speed up your render in premiere as well.

I’m afraid premiere isn’t the best with the way it handles graphics/photos but then maybe that goes for other nle’s as well.

Jon Barrie had a quick tutorial where he used the color of one layer to affect the color of a text layer.

It is under color correction > color link. There are a number of settings from averaging to darkest etc plus blending modes.

It might be what you are after.

Dino
My immediate thought is there could well be an easy way to do this using expressions. I don’t know enough there to help.

I personally would copy the 3 video tracks and paste them into your pre-comp. In the pre-comp animate the masks then turn the video layers off.

Then your main comp should have the correct timing for your animations.

Have you tried using the stencil alpha option in blending modes?

By increasing scale by those proportions it will wreck your footage resolution.

Toolfarm have a sale on Boris’s Uprez $49.50 down from $99.00. I haven’t it tried it but it could be worth it.

FYI- to unlink scale uncheck ‘Uniform Scale’

Of course you could also dish out more dough and get the nVidia Quadro CX graphics card which is supposed to make things hum along especially in AE.
