ProspectHD Mac Premiere Pro CS3 at DVinfo.net

Hi,

I've converted my EX1 clips to Cineform Prospect HD .MOV files in Windows.

Now, I want to edit them on my Mac, but after I installed the Mac CFHD Codec, I don't know what project settings to use.

My footage is 720 30P square pixles.

Also, is there supposed to be a 'red' render line in Premiere? I'm a little unclear on what performance if any Cineform gives you on the Mac side of things.

Thanks,

Jim

We don't accelerate Premiere on the Mac. The red markers are the default behavior of Premiere for any third party codec that doesn't have a custom play module. CineForm is mainly for quality and multisystem compatible on the Mac, but more speed is coming.

What project setting do I need to use?

I set something up in 'DESKTOP' mode, will that work? Is that the 'proper' way to do it?

I also noticed in the readme.txt that you haven't tested this with the Adobe CS3 products yet and I only see notes for FinalCut Pro.

Does this work with PPro CS3?
