David Newman · May 1st, 2007, 09:26 PM

Thanks Ray,
I normally post the info on the new builds, but we've been completing so many I forgot. There are new revisions of everything.

Aspect v5.0
NEO HDV/HD/2K v3.0
Prospect HD/2K/2K-ingest v3.0

We till have lot of website work to complete to explain all the new goodies and why everyone should upgrade. :)

Hi David

Can I use v5.0 with PP 1.5.1 ?

Thanks
Ian

David Newman · May 2nd, 2007, 09:43 AM

Yes, it will work fine with Premiere Pro 1.5.1, 2.0 and CS3. Download the trial and see for yourself.

Ian Savage · May 2nd, 2007, 09:54 AM

Thanks David

I'm a fully paid up Aspect user, just wanted to check I could use the latest :-)

Actually I'm having a problem at the moment converting some 1080i HDV CFHD files into PAL quicktime files through PP (Using H264), the shorter files (15mins) work fine but the 60min files are failing at the mov compiling stage, I'm just trying a 43min file to see what happens.

Thanks
Ian

Subject for another thread, Premiere's QuickTime export problems, we don't think it is CineForm related.

Regarding the new product releases. There is will be a 15-day trail as always, which I recommend you use. For upgrade pricing please read http://www.cineform.com/SpecialPricing.htm

I'm a fully paid-up v4 devotee - and keen to try v5, but less keen to spend another $100.

Assuming I have to uninstall v4 and install the v5, what will happen after the 15 day trial? I won't be using HDLink etc, just importing, editing and exporting to CFHD avi's.

OK, so I could uninstall v5 and re-install v4 with my Key, but I'm wondering whether that's necessary?

David Newman · May 2nd, 2007, 11:09 PM

Uninstalling v4 will not remove its license key. You have safely experiment with v5.

Douglas Turner · May 2nd, 2007, 11:24 PM

Cool - will do...

I'm still getting problems with PPRO3 and Aspect v4 - so will try v5.

I'm editing a feature in time for a test screening at the end of May, so unfort don't have much time to report issues at the moment... I just work-around them.

Wayne Johnson · May 3rd, 2007, 05:46 AM

Does v5 mean Aspect HD v4 will never be supported under Vista?

David Newman · May 3rd, 2007, 07:49 AM

Not necessarily, if the updates can be easy retrofitted we will do that.

Good, because I don't think I need any of the v5 features. Unless..."Additional visual fidelity upgrades in the CineForm Intermediate codec" are noticeably better to the average eye?

Steven White · May 3rd, 2007, 05:57 PM

Out of curiosity, does the $99 to upgrade to Aspect 5 also apply to Aspect 3.2 owners?

-Steve

David Newman · May 3rd, 2007, 06:20 PM

Yes, from any version of Aspect HD it is $99. Also remember you can directly upgrade Aspect HD to the latest Prospect HD for additional $301.

John McGinley · May 3rd, 2007, 06:30 PM

I upgraded my aspect HD to prospect HD yesterday, next stop Intensity Pro card.... is that full raster HD I see recording on my computer? Oh, yes it is. Should make pulling green screen much better.
