Just want to make a point of clarification. Sorenson and MPEG are
totally different delivery codecs. Sorenson is designed for Web
delivery and MPEG is designed for delivery from CD-ROM or DVD. Do you
have to do MPEG or do you have some flexibility? Since you are doing a
CD-R, then you probably want MPEG. This is especially true if you care
about quality.

To get from Premiere to MPEG using our product requires that you export
to QuickTime or AVI and then use MPEG Power Professional to encode that
file. There is an MPEG encoder bundled with Premiere 5.0, but I have
heard from many people that there are some issues.

Thanks,
