Did you see this link posted by Bill earlier?

Maybe we will get to use CS3 after all.

Not sure why they removed it, but it said that CS3 would support EX1 MXF files start to finish in Premiere and AE from an update to be released the first day of NAB.

Hey Randy,

It is still there (had me worried for a minute)

The way DVi handles links does not lend itself to copy/pasting.

Hi Bill,
Before I was getting a framed 404 Error, now, a full page permissions error:

For those that may have missed it, here (was) the scoop:

[Quote By Jan Ozer, digitalcontentproducer.com, NAB 2008 update]
At the show, Adobe will debut what Sony HD producers have been yearning for: similar support for XDCAM EX and XDCAM HD. Both updates will be available for free to CS3 owners on the first day of the show. Given the hardware requirements, Adobe can't promise it will demonstrate these functions at its booth, but the company mentioned that Sony and Panasonic should have the software up and running in their respective booths.

Adobe will also announce an initiative called “CinemaDNG” for a new, open file format for digital cinema video data, which is based upon Adobe's open file format for RAW still images. The new file format targets the problems created by multiple camera vendors shipping their own proprietary RAW formats, which include downstream incompatibilities during production and archiving. Adobe will announce several founding partners at the show, and the company says it hopes to pull together a working group to help formulate the standard.

Still pondering the full implications of this last paragraph. An intermediate codec?
