LFiHD on Switching Video Output in Premiere Pro with an AJA

Little Frog in High Def has an article on getting output of an AJA to work with 23.976 footage playing out to 29.97. The disturbing part is that he doesn't think that Black Magic has this option right now, so black magic won't play out 24P footage to a monitor that only supports 29.97 like Final Cut Pro will do. I will keep on this and see if this is true. If so they really need to fix this and fast!

GPU Features in After Effects 6

Todd Kopriva has an article on GPU acceleration in After Effects CS6 including CUDA and OpenCL.GPU-accelerated ray-traced 3D renderer (CUDA on specific graphics cards)Fast Draft mode, Hardware BlitPipe, and GPU acceleration of Cartoon effect (OpenGL with somewhat stringent requirements)OpenGL swap buffer (OpenGL with looser requirements)Looking forward to more speed in AE, even if most still has to be rendered (though with the RAM saving it may need a lot less rendering).

Premiere Pro 6 and OpenCL

Todd Kopriva has an article on Premiere Pro using OpenCL on AMD Radeon HD 6750M and AMD Radeon HD 6770M graphics card with 1GB VRAM in MacBook Pro computers running Mac OSX v10.7 Awesome that they give some acceleration to non-CUDA macs since there are barely any available CUDA cards for Mac, and most Macs have AMD cards. Still they need further support in the future.Still makes me thing that in the not too distant future a PC will be my main editing machine as it will have superior CUDA support.

Adobe will keep improving Premiere Pro

Adobe blogs has a great little piece on how they continue to want feedback on Premiere Pro and will continue to update it, especially for Creative Cloud users (who are paying more anyway).The great thing about Adobe is that they do talk to their users and do listen. Look how great Premiere Pro has gotten in such a short time, and it will only get better.
