I have just bought the CS3 Master Collection. With PP 1.0 I could add a transition beetween two clips, apply the proc amp filter for color correction and even add a title with motion. In highest quality RT mode it would look very good on the NTSC monitor. It actually looked as good as it would fully rendered. Now if I apply any color correction filter I get pixilated artifacts when there is movement (a person waving there hands). Even if I add a simple title the video below the title looks awful. RT previews used to look very clean in the NTSC monitor. Could the CS3 bundles have a serious bug in them? I have thought of everything and can not get PP CS3 to work half as good as version 1.0. What gives? Any info would help.
 
ther have been a lot of improment and adjustments in the way in which video is displayed for realtime, 1 has your hardware changed with your software, CS3 is significantly hungryer than PPpro1 and uses GFX card accelleration for its preview,

What is your hardware situation and your version of windows
 
I have XP.

I have a Pentium D at 3.4 GHX with 1.5 Gigs of RAM and a Nvidia 7300. I also Have a Core 2 Dual at 2.13 with 2 Gig of RAM and a Nvidia 7800. They both have Premire Pro 1.0 and PP CS3. Both system get multiple PIPs with version 1.0 but no PP CS3. Also the video just looks like bunk. I understand jerky motion from droped frames but the funky pixilation is very odd to me. I am only using DV-25 clips. The VGA previews are OK but the Fire Wire NTSC looks like crap. I know PP CS3 might use a little more resources but this can not be right. It has to be the Master Collection instal. Like I said PP 1.0 play fine on the same system in highest quality.
 
You can actually change how the "preview" files are rendered and in what format they are rendered. Go to Project/Project Settings/Video Rendering and select a different File Format in the drop down. The available selections in the drop down change based upon the originating project settings. When you create a new project, you have the ability to select a different rendering engine. I currently use "uncompressed 8-bit 4:2:2" which takes alot more hard drive space than the default "Microsoft AVI" codec, but it does give a much cleaner image when previewing on an external monitor. I have a dual Xeon 3.4, 6gb RAM, 7800GTX/256 and it needs to render any effects.
