Export to tape problem

[aginsurfr]

I just purchased 2.0 and am an experienced Premiere 6.5 user. I tried to export to a digital 8 tape on my sony dcrtrv-460. I get a very choppy tape. I only have 512 mb memory on an HP P4 1.7. Will more memory help? I did make a good dvd of the same program.

I think you need not only more memory but a much faster processor. V2 needs at least a 2.4ghz processor to work well, 3.0 or better would be best.

Why would you buy Premier 2 if you have Premier Pro 6.5? Just curious, no sarcasm or negative vibes intended...

Premiere Elements is a bit more advanced than Pro 6.5, and you can do it all with Premiere Elements, with 6.5 you need other programs to do it all.

[bwolford]

Chuck, Premier Pro is the pro version of Premier Elements. It doesn't have everything Premier Elements does, but Premier Elements will never be able to achieve all of Premeir Pro with a bundle of Encore and After Effects can do. But your point about it being a more complete package, albeit limited, is true.

Brice,
Pro 6.5 is quite an old version of Premiere, Premiere Elements is much more advanced than Pro 6.5 in many ways.

Ugh. I purchased 1.5 last year. I knew they had upgraded to 7.0 recently... I didn't think it was that old.

P.S. My ealier post should have read 1.5, not 6.5.

They went from 6.5 to a new version of Pro and called it 1.0, then they went to 1.5 and now version 2 which came out a few months ago. Version 6.5 is a few years old now.
