I be;ieve that the Matrox is still the only one. However, you could always use a second card.

I answered your question on another forum. But just to answer it here as well in case someone doesn’t see the other one:
I just tried it. The workaround works great. There is a bug in the Screen Key. Perhaps I didn’t explain it fully. The motion has to be in the sequence with the explosion. Try this:
Create a new sequence named “Explosion”.
Add the shot to track one of the new sequence.
Add the Space Explosion clip to track two.
Temporarily add a Luma Key to the explosion…this is only temporary.
Add the motion to the Space Explosion clip in track two.
Apply any necessary keyframes to control the motion.Once you are happy with the results, delete the Luma key, then delete the clip of the shot, and move the explosion to track one (optional)
Now put the Explosion Sequence into the Master Sequence over the original clip of the shot. Apply the Screen key.
That ought to do it for you since it does it for me.
Of course, with your explosions, you might just say to heck with it and use a Luma Key instead of a Screen Key. But the workaround doesn’t take that long. You decide.

I am thinking you might want to create a 1080i project for your 1080i footage, deinterlace it on the timeline, and then export it to CFHD AVI at 720. Use that in your 720 project. Just a guess.

That question changes considerably depending on if you own After Effects or you don’t.
The best addition to Premiere Pro is After Effects Pro. That gives you better chroma keying, slow motion, motion titles, all kinds of things. Getting the entire Production Studio is wise.
If you own AE get Pro. If you own AE Pro than I suggest Particle Illusion as the best of the additions. Maybe. It depends on your content. You might just want some of the Trapcode effects.

If you have the original Premiere Pro (shows as version 7 in the Help/About screen) then you can not upgrade for free. You must buy version 1.5 before you upgrade to 1.5.1 – but at this point you would be better off upgrading to version 2.0

Yes you are. You need to download the updates to the program. I have this posted on my Premiere Pro page, but not everyone visits I guess.
