You can work
on a project across computer platforms, for example, by starting
on Windows and continuing on Mac OS, or the other way around. A
few functions will change, however, as the project moves from one platform
to the other. For a video on editing in a multi-platform environment,
see www.adobe.com/go/vid0236.
- Sequence settings
- If a project is created on one platform and then moved to another,
the equivalent sequence settings will be set automatically for the second
platform if an equivalent is found. For example, if a DV project
containing DV capture and device control settings is created on
Windows, when the project is opened on Mac OS the appropriate Mac
DV capture and device control settings will be applied. Saving the
project will record these Mac OS settings and a translation to Windows
settings will occur if the project is later opened on Windows.
- Effects
- All video effects available on the Mac are available on Windows. Windows
effects not available on the Mac will appear as offline effects
if the project is opened on the Mac. These effects are designated
“Windows only” in Premiere Pro Help. All audio effects
are available on both platforms. Effect presets will work on both
platforms (unless the preset applies to an effect not available on
a given platform).
- Adobe Media Encoder presets
- Presets created on one platform are not available on the
other.
- Preview files
- Preview files made on one platform are not available on the
other. When a project is opened on a different platform, Premiere
Pro re-renders the preview files. When that project is then opened
on its original platform, Premiere Pro must render the preview files
yet again.
- High bit-depth files
- Windows AVI files containing either 10-bit 4:2:2 uncompressed
video (v210), or 8bit 4:2:2 uncompressed video (UYVU) are not supported
on the Mac.
- Preview rendering
- Playback quality of unrendered non-native files (for example,
AVI on Mac OS and MOV on Windows) will not be as high as playback quality
of these files on their native platforms. Preview files must be
rendered for them on the current platform. Preview files always
are rendered in a native format. A red bar in the timeline indicates
which sections contain files needing rendering.
