I'd say that H264 as a final master is very terrifying to me, for history's sake. Sounds like the old days of video introduction that left a number of TV shows stuck in a format that was unable to be cleanly up rez'd to Anything above 1280x720. The general populous has become way too use to the look of compressed footage now-a-days. When the new future formats come into play, we'll all be having those same conversations of, blowups. History does repeat itself apparently. I think we've regressed with the progress if technology is a sense. Mini rant. Greg, more to your note, I actually haven't noticed a big hit with AME and AE working side-by-side, but I haven't really pushed it either. I know we stopped using H264 out of AE years ago as it still has a gamma issue. Always have to correct it in QT on every export. X264, when it works fixed that, but has been unreliable for us for years too. Always crashes and fails within weeks of install. We've stuck to the PR4444 outputs that get cut down to H264 in QT. Got a decent clean clip and a compressed preview.
