Can someone remind me where are the Adobe Tutorials for Premiere CS3, Encore... I remembered it was on, I thought, tutorials.adobe.com (I know there were only a few, but, I am interested in learning one particular one. I also believe there were done by Total Training, maybe?
If Adobe has removed them, well, anyone know of another site that offer just basic free Encore tranining?

[Al Carpenter]"The Premiere one is not as good as the Photoshop one-on-one"
I totally agree, but that does not mean that the Premiere stuff is poor...it is just that "As it turns out" Deke McClelland is the consummate Photoshop expert and very entertaining to boot.

Mike,
I am not able to install the Premiere Elements 4.0 trail verion on my laptop. I even called Adobe technical support and they said there is no way around it, told me to basically to throw the trail out the window because the licensing has expired. I have never downloaded or installed P.E. on my laptop before! Nor on any one of my pc. Frustrating!
Can I ask if the timeline can be formated to similar to Pro? in Element 4.0?

The one timeline is much simpler than Pro. You cant change the height of a clip, you cant twiddle up the track so the opacity and volume rubber bands are hidden. There is no eyeball or speaker icons to temporarily turn off the track, although you can disable a clip. There are no in/out points to set either in the one monitor window or the timeline. The timeline is gravity fed to the left...changing one in point of any clip causes the timelime to "auto ripple delete" the blank space.
DVD authoring with Dolby is OK. The Titler is just OK.
With a good codec pack (ffdshow) installed it will import more formats. I just used Elements to create a DVD that was shot (video) in Hawaii on a still camera! Premiere Pro turned up its nose at the files (on the same PC).

Right you are... I think the Premier Pro Tutorial at Lynda.com is fine... I will certainly enjoy the next part. As you pointed out though Deke is humorous and fun, not to mention good content.
