I am guessing I am one of VERY few editing on PP CS4 on a Mac... But I am wondering if this will soon change with the release of Snow Leopard (rumored release date Fri Aug 28th). I am anxious to see what kind of performance boost the 64 bit operating system will give to Premiere, especially dealing with AVCHD.

Quote from Adobe's website: "Gain up to 227% performance improvement when you use Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 and After Effects CS4 on 64-bit systems."

...Looking forward to it.
 
hmm I was just about to ask if anyone can confirm the performance enhancement for windows xp - or vista 64bit .
Anyone ?
 
Vegas 9. Pretty unstable at the moment. It's a shame because I love that program. Might give a spin to Edius Neo 2 since it came with the camera.
 
It should be "Edius" or "Edius Neo". Edius Broadcast was a separate version in earlier releases. There was Edius Pro and Edius Broadcast. They merged both into Edius 5 which is now pro and broadcast. Some users may be using Edius Pro 4.

Just sayin'.

I also loved Vegas for audio back before it became an NLE. I can't get the hang of it for video.
 
As ATL says, EDIUS is now called EDIUS 5. I believe EDIUS 5 is the first version that supports AVCHD.

EDIUS Neo 2 is a "light' version of EDIUS 5.
 
I use Avid Liquid and Media Composer (can't edit in AVCHD with those). So, I just edit in AVI or DVCProHD.
 
Unstable in regards to AVCHD, or just in general?

I'm using 8.0c, and everything is ok. But I can't edit AVCHD natively or it all goes haywire.
 
I remember reading when PP CS4 came out on Mac that is wasn't 64bit. PP CS4 is 64bit on the windows side only, so I don't think you'll really see a major speed increase.
 
For faster stuff, PP CS4.1 on Mac. When I can take my time, Log and Transfer to FCP. Waiting eagerly for SL FCS or Clipwrap2 to be released!
 
Only Photoshop CS4 is 64bit, all else in CS4 on PC is 32bit... but, it's supposedly been "optimized" or something to run on 64bit machines
 
I edit on Avid Mediacomposer. Just trying to figure out which looks better: DNxHD or DVCProHD. Wondering if there is a way to transcode into Sonys SxS format, which is also supported by Avid.
 
Vegas 8.c Pro.

Why did you group Final Straw.... I mean Final Cut as one but Vegas and Premiere are listed by version build?

What up wit da?
 
I use FCS2, but if they don't start supporting AVCHD like CS4 does (let alone Blu-Ray) I may soon switch. I want to check out Bridge, as I need serious help with file management.
