(crap...I just used the word "oughtn't" in a sentence) I use Premiere 5.0 and I know it uses OpenDML...actually, it has more to do with my Pinnacle capture card than Premiere...I guess I should say they are working together. It all has to do with the way the file is built, and whether the software can read that way. I don't know for certain, but I would guess that most windows video stuff put out with or after...say...W98 or so uses OpenDML. The exception, of course, being streaming stuff like ASF, etc. So in answer to your question, "Windows or Premiere?" -- both. They work together. OpenDML is just a new way to write the avi file so it can be bigger. There are other advances too, like addition of timecode information, and using fields and frames, instead of just frames. (This last bit is important for special effects like slow motion...) The important part of all this is, you dont' have to worry about it anymore. If you really want to learn about it, for whatever reason, that's cool. But if you are learning because you are concerned about your own work or system or something like that, don't. It's really dry boring crap that you just don't need to spend your time on anymore. Just edit away and take a programmer to lunch. Thank him/her for making dry boring crap that makes our lives easier. mobrul Loading...
