Hey!
I´ve got some MXF footage from the EX1. I converted it with the Sony Software to MXF but when I drag the MXF files into Premiere CS3 or Vegas 8 Pro - there is this disturbing Main Concept Watermark!! How can I remove that mark??
It is the original Premiere Pro CS3 and Vegas.
A friend gave me the MainConcept 3.1 MPEG Pro HD Plug-in and the MainConcept H264 Encoder. But I dont know how to install it, that the watermark disappears?
How can I remove that watermark?? I need to remove it the next days because my client needs the result in a week!
THANKS A LOT AND GOD BLESS!

The Mainconcept software you have may be the demonstration version which was a free download from their website when I visited there some time ago.
To get rid of the Mainconcept logo you may need to buy the product.

I never did buy the product and register as the logo was no problem for me for the clips I upload and probably a bit of cross-promotion on YouTube for Mainconcept as a payback for the demo plug-in being a freebie.
I have since lost the original download from my softarch folder during some careless housekeeping and cannot now identify the actual download version for you for which I apologise.

The Clip Browser 2 can convert to several MFX formats, most of which requre you to buy a plugin pack from Mainconcept (http://www.mainconcept.com/plugin4clipbrowser) to get rid of the watermark.
You do not need them if you convert to "MXF for NLE" format.
You will need to re-export the files, either with the option above of after you have purchased the plugins to get a watermark-free export.

Glad to have been of assistance. As for the playback; it sounds like your PC may not be up to the task.
You should have a dual-cpu/multi-core system, enough memory (>2GB) and a supported graphics/video card to edit HD. If your system meets these requirements there may be another issue...

yeah i think so! i've a 2GB Ram and Intel Centrino Laptop! I know that my laptop is too slow for editing such footage but i hoped that there are some tricks to do that all faster ;)
Other question: I've an avi with 2 GB and i need to compress it (maybe with xvid codec) to a 300MB avi! Which programme can I use? I have the pocket divx encoder but I doesnt work on my computer?! I dont know why but are there other programs? I couldnt find any but I need it now until tomorrow morning?
THANKS A LOT!!!

Centrino laptop is going to be too slow to playback a full HD stream.

Bring the AVI into Vegas, and export from there into whatever you need.

That pretty much goes for Premiere as well...

The logo is "burnt" in to the footage, you don't remove it. You need to pay for the encoder & re-encode from the original source. You will throw away or replace the footage with the logo.
