Remove the OpenGL3D plug-in from the Plug-ins/Standard/Extensions folder. If that works, update your video card drivers, then put the plug-in back.

Yes. Project files can be transferred cross-platform, with the caveats (plug-ins and source footage location) that you mentioned.

If that doesn’t work, remove the OpenGL3D plug-in from the Plug-ins/Standard/Extensions folder. You should be able to get it to launch then. You won’t have OpenGL acceleration, but if the Go5700 isn’t going to play nice, you’re better off without it.

Check the Layers panel. If the background layer is locked, you won’t be able to change it. Edit the menu in Photoshop to unlock the layer (double-click on it and then hit OK), and then you can make changes.
Also note that in Encore 2.0, you need to use the Direct Select Tool (the white arrow) or select the layer in the Layers panel. The Selection Tool (the black arrow) doesn’t pick up individual elements.

Is there no such thing as a true 24 fps DVD?
That is correct. 24P footage needs to be 23.97. The DVD spec does not allow for 24fps, so to work around it all 24fps footage is converted to 29.97 with 3:2 pulldown flags.
I thought I was able to make a 24 fps DVD which if played through a Progressive Scan DVD player to a Prgoressive able TV will just show at 24 fps
I’ve never heard of a TV that plays 24fps natively. All TV’s (including LCD’s, Plasma, etc.) run at 60Hz (essentially 60fps). For HD progressive material they just don’t change the image every frame. For non-HD displays 3:2 pulldown is used to match the interlaced display. 24fps produces a noticeable flicker to the eyes, and it would be terrible with a bright video display. (Even film projectors run the shutter in front of each frame at least twice to avoid flicker.)

My recommendation is to go with one of the Nvidia cards. They seem to give the best results with the fewest problems (right now). I notice that Leadtek card isn’t even on the list, so it’s probably best to avoid it.

March 31, 2006 at 9:09 pm in reply to: Production Studio premuim upgrade from Video colleciton After effects has no keylight or colour finesse?Third party plug-ins like Keylight and Color Finesse always use separate installers. Insert disc 1 of the Production Studio installer. There’s links on the main menu, or you can browse the disc contents. They’re not hard to find.
I’m curious- why did you call the US for tech support if you’re in the UK? Why didn’t you call the UK phone number? That just… perplexes me.

What font are you using? Some fonts are all caps. There’s also an All Caps option in the Character palette, but I don’t know if it works on all fonts.

Adobe’s upgrades always install the full application. Uninstalling the previous version also won’t cause any issues for the new version.
