Encoding ogv files to edit in Adobe Premiere

To convert the Ogg Vorbis/Theora output from RecordMyDesktop to edit in Adobe Premiere (Elements 10 for me) using ffmpeg:
ffmpeg -i out-48.ogv -s 1920x1080 -r pal -b 36M -threads 2 -vcodec dnxhd -acodec libmp3lame out-48.mov
A Windows install of the DNxHD/VC-3 codec can be installed from:

And you should then have a nicely behaving video in Premiere at native settings.
