Installing Adobe Premiere Pro; Installing Other Third-Party Programs - Matrox RT.X2 Installation Manual

Installing Adobe Premiere Pro

You must install Adobe Premiere Pro before installing Matrox Mx.tools.
¡ Important You must install Adobe Premiere Pro and Matrox Mx.tools on an
NTFS-formatted drive (usually your system drive).
° To install Adobe Premiere Pro:
Close all Windows programs.
1
Insert the Adobe Premiere Pro installation DVD in your DVD-ROM drive.
2
From the displayed menu, choose to install Adobe Premiere Pro. When the
3
setup program starts, follow the onscreen instructions.
¦ Note When you install Matrox Mx.tools, Matrox plug-in files will be added to
your Adobe Premiere Pro's Plug-ins folder on your hard drive. Therefore, if you
later re-install Adobe Premiere Pro to a different directory, you'll need to
uninstall and re-install Matrox Mx.tools.

Installing other third-party programs

There are a number of programs for which you can choose to install a Matrox
WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) plug-in that lets you see your work
directly on your video monitor. For example, the Matrox WYSIWYG plug-in for
Adobe After Effects lets you display the contents of your composition on your
video monitor to see the exact color temperature, safe-title area, and any
interlaced artifacts as you work. The following programs are supported:
• Adobe After Effects (version 5.0 or later).
• Adobe Photoshop (version 7.0 or later).
• Autodesk 3ds Max (version 7.0 or later).
• Autodesk Combustion (version 4 or later).
• eyeon Fusion (version 4 or later).
• NewTek LightWave 3D (version 7.0 or later).
If you have any of these programs, you should install them now so that you'll be
able to install the Matrox WYSIWYG plug-in for them when you install Matrox
Mx.tools. You can, however, install the Matrox WYSIWYG plug-in for a
program at any time after installing Mx.tools as explained in the section
"Installing additional Matrox WYSIWYG plug-ins or removing unneeded
plug-ins" on page 26.
¦ Note When you install the Matrox WYSIWYG plug-in for a program, Matrox
plug-in files will be added to a folder for that program on your hard drive.
Therefore, if you later re-install the program to a different folder, you'll need to
also re-install the Matrox WYSIWYG plug-in.
