Sure.. All your considerations on Premiere are right.
But let’s explain better. I have Mac not Windows… first of all. ProRes is nearly a standard on Mac and Premiere should comply (Apple or not Apple).
I love Premiere’s interface, the ability to import any format etc… But I am missing real-realtime operations. That is the HD codec I want.. a realtime one…. Nice I have AVCHD, M2T MPEG 2 files, DVCPRO HD etc…. but none of these works realtime for me. I’ve seen people working on PCs that can almost get to it (I am still speaking of a normal non-special machine) but not on Mac.
Also.. and this is not quicktime, is Premiere… when I press PLAY I expect to start and when I press STOP I expect it to stop.. but sometimes it takes half a second that is an incredible long time for an editor.

I don’t know… I started editing in HD on Premiere around 2004 as soon as I bought (was one of the first) my Sony Z1 that gave me an M2T stream. Now.. six years after.. I am still not able to have a realtime playback without buying dedicated hardware. Sure.. there’s Cineform.. But afetr buying Adobe Master Collection shouldn’t I deserve a realtime playback engine ?

The best way to use this codec (if, when,..) could be to import a preedited version on the timeline in native format. Leave premiere to make a preview in this codec, then goon editing realtime and finally export in desired format. This would mean no re-compression in intermediate codec.. but just a one step export. Quality and workflow could improve incredibily

yes.. still.. what everybody need is a realtime codec for HD I guess. that is the main goal. You can use DV (realtime) for SD.. but no real option for HD

The first one. Premiere handles Prores just any other native codec. No real time available in playback on a normal machine. Sure if you get a special machine, special raid, super processors etc.. maybe.. I say maybe.. you get realtime.

Yes.. but Cineform costs 500 euro. I wonder why no one at Adobe thought of optimizing Premiere for ProRes.. at least in this CS5 version. Or to buy Cineform.. as they did for MPEG Main Concept at some point

Somebody should start to sell an audio adaptor, some sort of jack plug for a standard hearphone so to plug a normal earphone into the 5D. There are so many gimmicks around for 5D.. wonder why nobody thought of this

December 10, 2009 at 5:42 pm in reply to: XDCAM standards and conversions

I know but sometimes I edit myself, sometimes I give footage to clients and some time is in between, where I edit some bits and they do some other. MXF worked fine for a TV production on AVID but same MXF was rejected by another client. I had to give them MOV and they had to buy the plugin etc… And still they don’t have realtime playback (PC – Premiere).
Anyway.. I would like to be able to re-wrap in any direction to anything I need.

Here is what I found

MP4 to MXF (Sony’s software)
MOV to MXF (Convergent Design File Converter)
MP4 to MOV (Sony’s Software)

ANd still I don’t find

MXF to MOV
MXF to MP4
MOV to MP4

Any ideas?
