Avid codec and CS5

Question

I am eager to make the jump to CS5.  One thing I am wondering about is if quicktime codecs need to be 64bit.  We have an avid in house so all video to and from the avid is in a quicktime using Avids codec.
Anybody know if this works in 64 bit as it will be a big problem if I cant read/render  these quicktime files.

Answer 1

I recommend downloading the trial version and checking for yourself, but I don't see why this wouldn't work.
After Effects CS5 uses a process (Adobe QT32 Server) to make calls to 32-bit QuickTime components. This means that you can use 32-bit QuickTime codecs.
Of course, as I said, you should really check for yourself first, using the trial version.
