Thanks for your time to respond to this.

1st – I think I do qualify to call the product unrefined, as I have 16 years editing experience and about 3 of those on premiere. An Editor is an Editor and at the end of the day they all do the same job (Basically). I don’t want to upset the powers that be here, so in reviewing my original post I can see how some of you professionals out there might have taken my post as a little bit of a jab, for that I apologize.

I am just wondering what my weak link is? Is it my system? Should I get a Matrox RTX2 (or ??) would that help? More RAM? It’s Ironic that I can edit on a 2 year old Macbook with a Dual Core Intel 2.0 and 1gb RAM just fine… (oh and it wouldn’t take 20+ hours to render a 45 minute timeline out.. see my other post)

I understand that every NLE has a learning curve, and I am committed to learning Premiere. I absolutely love the way that it integrates with other products.

Thanks again and in advance for your help…

OK.. So I just got into my office.. And it is still encoding. It has gone over 19 hours so far and says it has and hour and a half to go.

The tif file is used about 3 minutes of the 45 minute timeline.

Is my system the weak link here?

Thanks for the response Mike..

Yeah.. I guess I am just surprised that Premiere isn’t more refined. Heck, it has been around for quite some time.

Will post some specific issues/questions as they come up.

thanks again
