Hi Aaron,
Not sure what you mean by “handle” HD. It will allow you to display the current highest possible HD resulution if your screen can handle it. If you are talking about speed, then the card will have little to do with it, rather the computer itself will. Capture of course isn’t an option here.
Cheers,

They will likely have to download the Divx player and/or codec although more and more players do come with it.
Or you could just download the codec and include it with the video.
If it’s a client, I probably wouln’t get them involded with that, but if it’s someone you know it’s a really easy one step install.
I would try the Windows Media HD export as well, I know you are on a deadline, but for that kind of size limit, that may be one of the few options you have available to try out. The highest setting should get you a pretty good result at a small size.
If I undertand right, this will be played right out of a computer to screen right ?
In that case, I would tell them to download, or include a program called zoom player (There’s a free version)
It’ ll play Divx right out of the box, and best of all you can pause it in full screen mode ready to play for an audience.
Windows Media is very bad at that. Annoying status bar stay there for a while, and you can’t pause it in full screen…

I’m guessing you meant 400 megs. You could try the Windows Media HD from Adobe Encoder, or Divx. These do fairely well in high compression. All depends on how big that screen is. I’ve played Divx videos on a 16’x9′ screen. It held up pretty well.

The easiest way is from scratch in case settings were changed… Create a new solid, or import your front image into the comp. Apply card dance. Then set your columns and rows to 1.
If you need a different back layer, import second image into the composition and choose it in the back layer option.
Use either x,y,z rotation, or “Camera Position” to move your layer around.

I don’t think there is a way to combine presets except for export, or into a custom bin, which is probably not going to help you here.
What about just copying the first clip and doing a paste attributes on the others?

BTW, I haven’t tried this with PP2, but there also is another alternative: https://www.videotools.net/index.php?rub=pub

I use a free frame server plugin. https://www.debugmode.com/frameserver/
May not be the perfect solution, but it sure beats a second render. I don’t think Premiere has any way to export directing to m4v.

Well, yes I mostly agree that the blame should be directed at Canopus; But Canopus being such a big player in the industry, I think Adobe could have looked a little closer at resolving what seems to be a rather simple fix. I guess competition isn’t always a good thing…

Well, the short answer is you can’t get the best out of both worlds. There are some who have done comparison clip by clip between Mainconcept (Adobe’s) and Canopus codecs. (Google up..). It seems that Canopus came on top as far as quality / speed go, but it was always a sketchy result, depending on how noisy the original clips were, and how much motion they contained.
Honestly, I like Adobe Media Encoder, a little slow maybe, but remember that Adobe has to take a non-rendered file, with its entire program running in the background, likely sucking out the life out of your cpu and memory to start with.
I find that when I need something to go to projection, I will export uncompressed and then let Procoder do the work, otherwise I won’t bother. The lack of integration between PP2.0 and Procoder may be resolved by more complaints to Canopus or Adobe…

Since you are using a dual layer, you should go with the highest setting in CBR mode.
