Any changes to the Ultra issues with CF?

One quick question:

Are there any changes to the CF output issues from Ultra? We can't get ANYTHING to output now with an alpha layer, not MOVs or AVIs. They all crash Ultra, and on our x64 workstation they won't even allow Ultra to open anymore...even after reinistall.

It is an Ultra bug/limitation (acknowledged by Adobe,) looks like we will need to see CS4.

Workaround for using ULtra with CF HD material

Just an addition to my post in case someone thinks Ultra is totally unusable:

You can edit CF'ed material in Ultra with a workaround. First output it as an uncompressed MOV (HUGE!!) from Premiere, then you can import it into Ultra and also output it as an ALPHA-layered uncompressed MOV. Then it can be used in either AE or Premiere or whatever ails you...

Nasty big files, but for short segments it's a workaround.
