Adobe CS4 fail

CS4 just made my day!? And I haven’t slept for 24hours.? Thanks to Adobe.

I finally decided to buy CS4 Production Premium.? Purchased download version and began my installation process (BTW, CS3 un-installation took 30minutes approx).? For some goddamn reason, installation failed.? Yes installer crashed.? When I try to resume installation, now it gives me “準備中”, meaning in preparation and does nothing at all.

CS4 GPU acceleration

Gathering some information about CS4.? So Premier Pro CS4 supports Nvidia’s GPU acceleration.? What about ATI!?? Seems ATI is not in the game sigh.

The encode process using the Elemental RapiHD encoder on the NVIDIA Quadro CX took just under four minutes to complete while using the CPU-based Adobe encoder the process took nearly eight full minutes.? The GPU-accelerated encoder has essentially cut the rendering time in half.

Just for a reference, with my PC (Core 2 Duo E6600) its gonna take 5,6 hours to render 2hours of HD video.? But since my PS3 is sitting here not being played for months, maybe I’ll use CodecSys CE-10 to do the job.

To CS4 or not to CS4

I’ve updated the index.? Just having fun with it.? Sorry might lock up slow PCs :( .? The vid was taken with 5D Mark II DSLR.? But then I noticed Adobe Premier Pro 7.0 couldn’t handle Full HD source, switched down to SD resolution and encoded with MediaCoder to MP4.

So I was considering to update CS3 to Web Premium CS4 but maybe Production Premium suites me better.? Besides, I use Aptana instead of Dreamweaver anyways and Acrobat is annoying as hell since it keeps updating crazy whenever I launch CS related software.? Plus I could finally let go my AfterEffects6.

Only problem could be not having Fireworks.? But I know I won’t be using it…I mean I can’t find its use.? Why not Photoshop?

[update]
CS3 doesn’t support Camera Raw for 5DMII…Ugh sux.
