I inadvertently posted this in the "General DV Acquisition" forum and it's still there. Apologies for the double posting.

In the Cineform literature (website) regarding Aspect it talks about supporting multiple (up to 4?) video streams, yada, yada.

What is a video stream? I'm guessing it would be the clip(s) on one video track in a sequence/timeline? Does the term also include the audio track in the "stream"? If the logic is correct, then 4 video streams would be the clips on four video tracks in the same timeline/sequence?

Yes. Of course performance can vary based on your hardware environment. But on a modern CPU plus a two-drive RAID 0 you should easily get 4+ HD streams on a Premiere Pro timeline with Aspect HD.
