I can understand that. Pinnacle Studio is aimed at a particular type of use. Premiere (even the Elements version) is much more a general purpose editor. I have used the full version of Premiere in the past (although I stopped upgrading at version 5.1) and liked it a lot. > It's really damn good. Not, it's not Premiere, but then again it's 90 > bucks.

This interests me a lot. I'm assuming you are using a PC, so I'm desperate to know if it can output iPod compatible Quicktime (using the AAC audio codec). So far I have not found _any_ PC video editor (other than Quicktime Pro, which is hardly an "editor" in the same way) which can produce Quicktime with AAC. If Premiere Elements can't output Quicktime with AAC, then it seems to have pretty much the same range of output formats as Ulead VideoStudio, Ulead Media Studio Pro, and ArcSoft ShowBiz. I'm still irritated at Adobe for not making a download and tryout version available for PE2. The only available tryout still seems to be version 1. -- Frank Carver http://www.makevideo.org.uk ------------------------ Yahoo!
