I don’t know for sure, but it may have to do with the registry. Just give it a try and let us know. Otherwise, if that doesn’t work, you have some other problem I have never seen.

I am pretty sure that you would have to uninstall Premiere Pro 2.0 before installing Aspect HD 3.x – otherwise it would try to install itself into 2.0 instead of 1.5.1
So uninstall 2.0, install Aspect HD, then reinstall 2.0

You can drag all of the windows to the other screen. However, I highly recommend you arrange various workspaces which include having the main window cover both monitors. There are a few advantages to the new system once you get used to it. Fliiping back and forth between workspaces is pretty handy.

I use two monitors, and I can’t imagine going back to just one. There is nothing that says you must use two when you play games. But for editing, Premiere Pro works great on two monitors.

The timeline in Premiere Pro is 24 hours maximum. So that isn’t the problem. It is more likely a problem with the Blackmagic drivers interaction with Premiere Pro. I have no clue which of the 2 is the real problem.

I use 1280X1024 on each of two 17″ monitors. Smaller than that would probably be a problem. I aseem 1600X1200 on an expensive 19″ monitor that looked pretty good though.

OK. Here is the way I would deal with it.
Rotate the image 90 degrees using the Motion Effect. That is your best way to rotate it as far as I can tell.
Scale the image down on track two to see the entire thing which will give you black bars on each side. Fill the background with a pretty motion background using the colors of the wedding by putting it on track one. You may find the shooter left lots of room around the subject on the sides, so you may not have to scale it down all the way.
In the area of the video with the motion background, superimpose small closeups that were taken by the photographer during the wedding. You can restrict the images to the area over the background, or you can float them slightly over the edge of the video so they look like they are actually floating. Use a drop shadow.
There is no magical way to make a portrait shot into a landscape shot. No magic at all. Zooming in can’t be done without loss of quality. So make it look like it was done on purpose. Use baby pictures if you need to. Pictures of the ceremony. Frozen frames from the movie itself. Use your imagination.
Just don’t expect it to look like it was shot normally.

Using Aspect HD, I edit in HDV, then I export a Cineform HD AVI and use it in a SD project so I can export to DVD from there.
I don’t know how you should do it native.

I am away at a funeral this week. I don’t have your answer, but when I get back, perhaps I can get the CTO of Cineform to take a look. He specifically told me to get the Conroe EE, which I am getting. The regular Conroe should be pretty good as well, but I can only go with what I am told. Cineform tested the Conroe before its official release.
I would imagine that 3 layers would require a RAID0, but I really can’t swear to it. I just don’t have the info with me.
