Chapter 3, Using the Matrox MAX H.264 Codec with Adobe Software
Exporting to Matrox MAX H.264 files using
Adobe Media Encoder
With Matrox CompressHD, you can use the Matrox MAX H.264 codec with
Adobe Media Encoder to quickly and easily export material to H.264 files for
Blu-ray Disc and other media formats. Matrox presets are provided for creating
.264
elementary stream files in HD formats that are supported for Blu-ray Disc
authoring using Adobe Encore, and
.mp4
files for creating files suitable for the
web and mobile devices.
Your Matrox
.264
elementary stream files can be imported to Adobe Encore
without having to transcode the files. If you prefer, you can choose to transcode
your material to Matrox H.264 format for Blu-ray Disc authoring directly within
Encore as explained in
“Transcoding for Blu-ray Disc authoring in Adobe
.
Remarks
• When you export an Adobe Premiere Pro sequence, the speed of the export
is affected by the rendering of any non-realtime sections of the sequence. If
your sequence’s video format matches your export format and you’ve
rendered previews of non-realtime sections, you can select
Use Previews
in
the
Export Settings
dialog box prior to performing your export. When you
do this, Premiere Pro won’t need to render the non-realtime sections for
which you’ve already created preview files.
• If you want to export a single Adobe Premiere Pro sequence, you may find it
more convenient and get faster results if you don’t export from Adobe Media
Encoder, and instead perform a direct export as explained in
direct export of an Adobe Premiere Pro sequence”
