So, I've had Edius Neo for a couple years, and now I get the great Adobe Premier Pro and I'm using it to edit together some footage of a wedding I shot using both Sony Hi8 camcorder footage converted to 29.97 FPS AVI files and some 30 FPS AVI video from my Canon camera.
I import the AVI from my Canon and it freezes on playback. Then I discover I'm supposed to use Adobe Encoder to convert the 30 FPS video to 29.97. Luckily I've got that, so I convert the Canon camera video and import it into my Premier Pro project, and it looks like lousy ultra-compressed garbage.
So, I go back to my Edius Neo, which you can get for $100 now, and I bring the Sony Camcorder footage AVIs and the Canon Camcorder video AVIs right into a project and into the same sequence and it all plays perfectly. What gives?
Sheesh, and I can't even burn a DVD with Premier Pro, but I have to export files and use Encore to create my DVD. Edius Neo has a useable, if not opulent, DVD authoring tool built in.
So, if you're mainly a person who wants to edit together home videos from your camcorders and cameras and make functional if not fancy DVDs, consider Edius Neo. The user interface is baffling at first, but at least it's all there and it works and it costs very little compared to this over hyped disappointment.Get more detail about Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 [OLD VERSION].
