New to Premiere Pro CS5: Adobe’s Mercury Playback Engine

The most anticipated new features of Adobe Premiere Pro and for many users the entire Creative Suite 5 are the hardware optimizations for both the Mac and Windows versions of Premiere. At the heart of the update is 64-bit technology and multi-core support, allowing powerful modern CPUs to ease the burden of rendering and effects processing. In addition to this support, Adobe has implemented new options for graphics cards, leveraging the efficiencies in Nvidia’s CUDA technology for processing high definition content. In combination, these changes have amounted to what Adobe is calling the Mercury Playback Engine.
While major software revisions typically mean lower performance on older hardware, systems with the proper processor and graphics configurations can see their large projects open up to ten times faster due to the power of the native 64-bit software design. Another goal of the Mercury Playback Engine is reduced rendering time, and in some cases, the complete elimination of rendering for previews of sequences utilizing certain effects. Color correction and motion control, for example, are handled directly by the compatible Nvidia GPU and displayed in real time.
Even users without the recommended video cards will notice improvements in rendering efficiency and results. With Premiere Pro CS5, the software engineers at Adobe have once again listened to feedback from their professional user base to bring practical improvements to their product line.
