The Edit Doctor on NVIDIA Quadro Performance speeds with Premiere CC and my worries on new MacPro
And this is why I worry about the new MacPro. OpenCL acceleration is not nearly as fast as CUDA on the PC, and the Mac has always had a far inferior OpenCL installation. Multi GPU’s are incredibly hard to code for and only give moderate performance enhancements on even the most mutli-GPU aware games on the PC, so they are only for the most hard core of gamers. The only exception to this is a Maximus configuration from NVIDIA which is a Quadro with a TESTLA card (the non-consumer version of a Titan), which has incredible power and speed and really can use both processors. This all leaves the new MacPro in the code. Most software won’t be coded for multiple AMD GPU’s and even if they are the performance increases are usually pretty modest, and OpenCL can’t touch CUDA! So why made a new “pro” machine without the option for CUDA? The only argument I can see if form over function, and that seems to be what the new MacPro is all about!
Adobe Creative Cloud issues talked to Adobe Tech Support and they didn’t help
And though it was in India, I had less trouble understanding them this time. Of course they didn’t actually help. Had me boot as root and the apps launched there (only bridge would launch otherwise), and said it was an issue with my user folder and they wouldn’t help with that! I should call Apple! WTF! No help with conflicts of their software which I am paying a monthly fee to use? Now that is shitty support!
Adobe Creative Cloud doesn’t work for me at all!
In fact, the only application in the entire suite that will launch is Bridge CC. Every single app has a different problem when it launches, but none of them will launch.

Adobe has the Adobe Premiere Pro Help Page, which includes, New Features and a PDF Manual.
Possible fix for Importing FCP 7 projects into Premiere Pro
This post at Creative Cow has a possible fix for importing an FCP 7 Project into Premiere Pro. And it is to import the media first and let Premier build the Cache and then import the XML! Smart.
USC moving from Final Cut Pro to Adobe Premiere Pro
According to a new PDF case study from Adobe, USC is giving up on FCP and teaching Premiere Pro. And not Final Cut Pro X. Nice. While Adobe is a full suite of apps, I think this kind kicks sand in the face of all those saying how FCP X is ready for professional usage.
Coen’s move from Final Cut Pro to Premiere Pro for next film
No film school is covering this.
Seems inevitable since they edit their own stuff, and FCP 7 is dead and and I would not want to edit a feature on the FCP X timeline.
