1. Re: The app Adobe is missing: A QuickTime Killer
JSS1138 Jan 16, 2014 7:42 PM (in response to dparsons85)I think as a container format, MXF is the replacement.
I think as a player, PotPlayer and VLC do the job quite nicely.
I think as a transcoder, AME is quite good, and can be rounded out with Xvid4PSP and XMedia Recode.
Given all this, I don't think there's really anything left for Adobe to do. The onus is on content creators to just stop using QuickTime - for everything.
Just stop. The world will be a better place.

I agree about AME, I love it and use it for all encoding jobs. I hadn't heard of PotPlayer before so I'll have to check that out.
I guess the point I was trying to make is not that there aren't other solutions (use AME for encoding and VLC for playback. simple) but that after ingesting and organizing footage in Prelude, cutting in Premiere, adding titles and graphics in After Effects, grading in SpeedGrade, mixing in Audition, and encoding in Media Encoder, I then have to use a 3rd party program to watch my output. It just seems like there's one piece of the puzzle missing.
