New in beta: H.264 in .MOV

Now available in the beta versions of Premiere Pro, After Effects and Media Encoder is the ability to export H.264 in the .MOV / QuickTime container. Adobe's video applications have long been able to import and play H.264 / MOV and we are now adding the ability to export in this format. Look for the new export preset option, shown here:

H.264 / MOV is useful for two reasons:

1. Some applications and services (particularly older ones) require the use of .MOV. One example is the PIX review system by X2X. 

2. H.264 / MOV supports up to 32 channels of audio while H.264 / .MP4 supports only 2. H.264 / MOV can therefore be useful in creating proxies with more than two channels of audio. 

We'd love to get your feedback on H.264 / MOV support!
