Adobe is obsessed with the idea of audio conforming. They argue conforming 16 bit audio to 32 bit audio will work better with current CPU architecture when applying audio filters. Then I have no idea why Encore has to conform audio too. It's just completely useless and generate cached files that take up more harddrive space.

Even when the portable drive has the same letter on each computer, Premiere insists on re-indexing if the drive has been sullied by another computer. To add insult to injury, Premiere will insist on re-indexing even on a single computer if for some reason the drive has its letter re-assigned. I had that happen 9 months ago when I added a second portable drive that bumped the letter assignments up. Premiere insisted on re-indexing a drive it had already indexed, a process that took 16 hours because I had hours of video in the project. What a brain-dead design! I hope it's fixed in CS4, but don't have high hopes. I wonder just what's in the indexing files Premiere takes so long to generate and where they're stored? You'd hope they'd be in a specified scratch disk location so they'd be in the same directory as the project, but there seems instead to be a mystery directory somewhere that we have no control over.
