Hi, has anyone successfully done timelapse with On Location CS3 in HDV mode? The help says it has to be recorded in MPEG not M2T, but PPRO CS3 crashes instantly when importing that file. Thanks for any help.

Probably due to the long GOP with m2t that won't record as time lapse. Only 2 i frames per second of video. Strange as I believe Premier records HDV as mpg and not m2t. Not happy with Adobe here with respect to OL and Ultra. Why did they buy them in the first place?? Miss you Serious Magic.

Thanks for the reply. Yes Premiere captures MPEG, but I use PPRO with Matrox and it crashes when I import the resulting ONL file. I don't have CS4, but the improvements they made to On Location look nice...except for the timelapse function. As for Ultra, I agree with you 100%. I answered a survey a few months ago about CS5 and Ultra was not mentioned. For now I've just been speeding up the clips to about 6,000%, which works on clouds and sunrises/sets, but not if you want to capture a "day" of changes.
