Based on version number alone, I would think 1.5 is an improved version of the engine and would perform a better encode.

That brings me to another question actually do ProCoder 1.5 and ProCoder 1.0 Express use the same engine and yield IDENTICAL results? What's the difference. I think I read that somewhere, anyone know if it's true? MainConcept (Adobe2) MPEG Audio Encoder,0x00200000,1,1,ad2mceampeg.ax. Cause apparantly ProCoder Express 1.0 is the only thing that works well with Premiere Pro. Machine name: YOSHQ Operating System: Windows XP Professional (5.1. I may just bite the bullet and buy Canopus 2.0 though.

I just don't find it's that good, I prefer Canopus ProCoder but 1.5 doesn't plugin to Adobe Premiere Pro well. Although I guess it'd be nice to have if ever I needed it, but I do want something that is better than the MainConcept encoder built into Premiere Pro 1.5.

the MainConcept HD Mpeg Pro plugin has a feature for HD and regular DVD, is the regular DVD Mpeg-2 it encodes any better than the basic version of MainConcept that comes with Premiere Pro? Or is it the same thing? Cause editing in Mpeg-2 mode doesn't REALLY interest me. Product Version: 1.6 DVD Devices Installed: MATSHITA UJDA710 (Firmware 1.50) Installed Codecs: Audio Capture Sources: SoundMAX Digital Audio Audio Compressors: WM Speech Encoder DMO WMAudio Encoder DMO MainConcept (AdobeEncore) MPEG Audio Encoder Nero Audio Encoder IAC2 Voxware v1.1. video codec is software or a device that provides encoding and decoding for digital video, and which may or may not include the use of video compression and/or decompression.

From what I've learned, Premiere Pro 1.5 has the same MainConcept encoder as 1.0, right? However if you BUY the MainConcept HD Mpeg Pro plugin for like $200-300 then you can edit in Mpeg-mode without having to convert to another format?
