No pain here…just helping folks.
We are up to version 10 in Photoshop and 7 probably did not have this then. An alternative would be to create a new layer, increase the canvas size on the right edge by 33% and then stretch the image layer to cover the larger canvas. -
Some say ProCoder {no longer Canopus) is better for long movies over 2 hours.
I use the Adobe Media Encoder mainly because Procoder is not compatible with CS3 and the Adobe thing works great.
It is slow because the default settings include 2 pass VBR and a quality level of 5.
2 pass VBr is great for movies over 90 minutes that have a good mix of motion (including camera panning) and very low motion scenes. The first pass analyzes the video for this and then takes your average bitrate, catalogs where more bits are needed and were less would be just fine.
You need to calculate your average VIDEO to fit your movie on the disc. Your max VIDEO bitrate can be as high 8 mBps. Many of us have found that combined bitrate (VIDEO and Encore encoded AUDIO as Dolby) over 8.2 mbps can cause some DVD players to choke and studder.Encore and Premiere have the same encoder except for audio and Encore will encode the Elementary Audio stream that Premiere created as Dolby. This saver exporting from Preiere as an .avi file.
Regarding studdering, I have found that the media is often the culprit, although some players just dont like recorded DVD as opposed to replicated/
Keep your Video bitrate to below 8mbps in all cases. Encore will add .2 mbps for the audio.

You might also ask this question on the FCP forum. You can create a DV-NTSC DV.avi just fine, but not the type 2 that Premiere can ingest.

I cant believe Adobe would sell you CS3 without that capacity?
On the Windows side;
File>Export>Adobe Media Encoder
Then change the Format to Windows Media -
If there is such a thing as a “typical” workflow, entire clips seldom go from the Project window to the timeline. They go to the Source window for editing and then the Video only can be inserted into the timeline. The switch is in the lower right corner of the Source window.

Try updating to Windows Media Player 11 and the latest QT player.
-
Microsoft’s DV.avi comes in 2 flavors; DirectShow type 1 and 2. Premiere can only open type 2.

The Shadsows/Highlight effect allows for lowering the luminance of just the highlights.

[Sunchaser] “Regarding Premiere I see it does offer H.264? what do you meanmore options?”
Squeeze offer “Hinted for Streaming” option that neither QT Pro or Premiere offer.

In the upper left corner of the Export Settings window is a “Source” tab with a crop tool for use in your web output.
