Adobe Premiere CC2014 AVCHD mts files no sound restricted Dolby encoder - solution?

I wanted to import mts files from a Sony NEX VG10 Video camera. They are AVCHD files = .mts.   This works perfect in premiere Pro CS6. Also in my school in Bruges with Premiere Pro CC version 7 something. But with premiere Pro CC2014 (school in Brussels) I can import the files perfectly for video, but the clips do no have sound. Premiere gives a fault message: Dolby audio decode licensing restricted.
On the forum people say that for CC2014 Adobe doesn't pay licensing to Dolby and this is the reason. But this looks nonsense to me. Suddenly making a program useless?
Of course I can rewrap the files... But then I can as well stay with FCP and would be very much better of with AVID. So.... who can tell me and give a solution to this problem.
Thank you.
Joost.

I forgot to say... We use mac.

  • Projects settings for AVCHD MTS files in Adobe Premiere Elements 8

    Hello,
    I have read several discussions already, about importing AVCHD MTS file in Adobe Elements (version 8), but I'm also confused a littlebit, so I would like to confirm if I'm correct.
    FYI, I have a Canon Legria HFR26 camera and am using Adobe Premiere Elements 8 (with the latest updates installed).
    According to the specs in the Canon instruction manual:
    Videos are recorded in high definition using AVCHD specifications
    (MPEG-4/H.264 compression).
    Audio compression: Dolby Digital 2ch
    The camera supports making video's in different format, but I have done it in the default SP format, which results in a resolution of 1440x1080 (50 fields per second, interlaced).
    I have copied the video from the camera to my harddisk, and Windows also mentions the video's as AVCHD of 1440x1080 (Bitrate 7672kbps).
    The frame rate is 25 frames/second. I assume this is correct for 50i?
    So, when I import my video's into Adobe Elements 8, I select the following projects settings:
    PAL, AVCHD, HD 1080i 25
    Because the description matches my video files:
    - For editing with 1440x1080i AVCHD camcorders.
    - 16:9 interlaced HD video at 25 frames per second.
    - 48kHz audio.
    The video's are imported correctly and I can play them. However, as soon as I drop a video on the timeline, Adobe immediately starts background rendering the video (a red line appears on the timeline).
    What I understand from some discussions, is that this shouldn't happen, because the video format doesn't match the project settings. On the other hand, I have also read that for Adobe Elements 8 this is normal behaviour and it always start background rendering AVCHD video's.
    Is this expected behaviour or should I chance my projects settings or maybe even convert my video files to a different format?
    Thanks,
    Michiel

    The ability to work natively with AVCHD files was not added until version 10, Michiel. So you'll still have to render while you work in version 8.

  • No sound in Premiere Pro with .mts files

    Hello,
    when i import .mts files in Adobe Premiere Pro. There is no sound, why? I can import other other video files, like .mp4 and there is sound.
    Please Help!
    Premiere Pro detects the most settings false, it said 25p but i recorded with 50i and 1080i

    There is Audio in my files, the files are produced by an Sony Legria HF S10. I can play the sound with vlc Media Player, but in Premiere Pro CS 5, they said in the file is no sound!
    Other files, like .mp4 had a little speaker on the clip, but .mts files not!
    I used the Adobe Premiere Pro CS 5 German Trial.

  • Audio component not apearing when importing AVCHD .MTS files

    When importing AVCHD .MTS files into Premiere Pro the Audio component is not available (also in After Effects and Media Encoder)
    What am I doing wrong :/

    You could most likely convert them using a program like 5DTORGB, and then pull them back into Premiere. Although there is a chance this won't work, however in most cases I find it usually does work. Just be prepared to lose your metadata.
    If your on a PC I'd recommend downloading their beta version it will allow you to transcode your AVCHD to ProRes HQ.
    http://rarevision.com/5dtorgb/
    All you have to is provide them a correct email address and they'll send you a download link. When you transcode though keep in mind that it's going to make your file sizes much much larger, however this because ProRes is much less compressed than AVCHD video is. You do need to keep in mind though that ProRes HQ is visually lossless. If you chose to use another free converter program you'll most likely get stuck chosing a lossy format. Another nice thing though, is that it works on MAC too. Your shooter needs to know not to do this again though, because as you already know at this point. It can cause big issues...

  • FAQ: AVCHD MTS files

    We have heard from a number of users who have reported an inability to apply markers to AVCHD MTS files because the .mts files were moved out of the folder structure created by the camera.
    For example in this screenshot I demonstrate an MTS file that has been moved out of its original folder. Prelude can ingest this file and play it, however the Marker buttons are disabled because XMP cannot write markers for MTS files that are separated like this.
    Instead it is important that the folder structure created by your AVCHD camera be maintained in its entirety. You can either copy the entire card to your computer then ingest from that, or ingest directly from the camera card and use Prelude to transfer the contents to a location on your computer.
    When the entire folder structure is maintained you are able to add markers to the AVCHD clips.
    If the original folder structure for your AVCHD MTS files is gone and your only option is to ingest raw MTS files you can transcode the clips using Prelude and Adobe Media Encoder by enabling the Transcode option in the Transfer Options. And if you create your own preset in AME it will appear as on option in Prelude.
    The transcoded file is ingested into Prelude and you can add markers to it.

    When attempting to play the .MTS files in import I'm getting the 'dropped frames' error message:
    "Issues that may affect playback include available memory, disk speed, graphics performance, and processor performance.
    You may be able to get better performance by doing the following:
    - Use proxy playback by changing the Media setting to 'Proxy' in the Viewer Options pop-up menu. (Requires proxy media.)
    - Optimize your source clip media."
    Could the lack of RAM in this iMac actually cause the video to speed up in FCPX? (weird)

  • Streaming AVCHD MTS files to Apple TV

    I am still in search of the holy grail I think... I have yet to be able to figure out how to easily grab my MTS files from my Mac and stream them *as is* without transcoding, converting, etc on my TV. I just bought new Apple TV not for that purpose but can't seem to find anywhere here if I can use it to to stream AVCHD MTS files to my HDTV. Does anyone know? thanks

    I just bought new Apple TV not for that purpose but can't seem to find anywhere here if I can use it to to stream AVCHD MTS files to my HDTV. Does anyone know?
    I hate to point out the obvious, but the normal practice is for the user to purchase the device that supports what he wants to do and not buy a device and the try to force it to do something it was not designed to do.
    To begin with, QT does not support Transport Streams such as TS/MTS/M2TS at all and only supports muxed MPEG-2 Program Streams employing specific audio formats... and then not natively. In other words, your file containers are not compatible with the QT player built into the TV/TV2 device. And, even if you place the data in a supported container, the audio and video data may or may not be compatible with the player codecs embedded in the device firmware.
    If your primary purpose is to stream content muxed in an MPEG/MPG/MTS/M2TS wrapper, it might be more prudent to purchase a device designed specifically for such content. For instance, I gave my wife, brother-in-law, and son TV2 devices for Christmas. However, my father-in-law insisted on a device the would play the videos from his camcorder and indicated that at 87 years of age, he had no intention of transcoding anything. As a result, I got him the LaCinema Mini HD device. While I cannot confirm that your files would be compatible with this particular device, it or something similar may meet your needs.
    Basically, you have three options here:
    1) You can convert your content to make it compatible with the TV device,
    2 You can "hack" the TV device and modify its capabilities, or
    3) You can buy a device that actually does what you originally want it to do.

  • HT3775 How do I import AVCHD  (.mts) files to iphoto and quicktime

    How do I import,save, and play AVCHD (.mts) files to iphoto '11 and/or Quicktime?

    First thing I'd try is deleting the iMovie Preferences. In the Finder, hold down the Option key and select Library from the Go menu. Navigate to the Preferences folder and find the com.apple.imovie.plist file and delete it.
    Try opening iMovie.
    If that doesn't work, restart holding down the shift key. It will run some disk checks (progress bar displayed), and then boot to the login window. It will say it is in safe mode on the login screen. Log in and check if iMovie works in safe mode.
    From there, I'm not sure. Maybe boot into recovery hd and repair the disk.

  • Importing AVCHD .MTS Files - HELP

    Since having kids, I have quickly become technologically-challenged and am looking for some help.
    I have a Canon HG10 videocamera that is AVCHD and all the files are in .MTS format. I haven't been able to use this in years because the hard drive is full. Back in 2008, we were told that we could use FC Express to import the files, so we shelled out good money for it, but we quickly found out that we were given bad information. So since then, the camera has pretty much sat unused and is full of videos of my son as a baby. And now he's 6 and I have also had two baby girls since then. So I would LOVE to empty the camera and put it to some good use.
    WHAT DO I DO FIRST???
    I have a iMac running OS Lion 10.7.5 and iMovie '11. I'm trying to scour the forums for information, but since having kids I am completely ADD and don't have the patience for reading through outdated threads.
    Questions:
    1) Is iMovie '10 actually a newer version than iMovie '11?
    2) Is it true that iMovie '10 will allow me to import the AVCHD/.MTS files directly off my camera?
    3) If yes, is this the best way to retain the quality of the files? (Clearly I'm becoming computer illiterate, so I'm not trying to produce any award-winning documentaries, but I'd like to ensure the best quality possible.
    4) I think I have external hard drives full of other .MTS files - not sure how I even got them on the external hard drives. I think I remember this being a problem before because I didn't keep the folder structure or something. Will I no longer have this problem?
    THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!

    since version 08, iMovie imports AVCHD
    just select Import from Camera...
    What's new in iMovie 13 aka v10 (which is newer than iMovie11, which was v09 ... no, this silly number scheme is not my fault!!!) is the ability to import mts without it's normal 'packing' as a AVCHD-structure.
    It's no good idea to 'strip off' this AVCHD-structure - for future use, just copy the whole SDcard/cam hard-drive content into some folder onto some harddrive ...

  • Can I play adobe premiere elements media cache files (original files lost)

    I have Adobe Premiere Elements 9 and have lost a number of the video original files and updated video files.
    However, I noticed that I have numerous adobe premiere elements media cache files (I dont think I ever cleared out the cache) - are these playable or am I able to use these to re-create the originals / make replacement videos.

    OK, thanks for your prompt reply. I thought I could access them in some way to either view or re-edit.
    I might as well delete them, if they no longer have a use.

  • Does iMovie 11 support native AVCHD (.mts) files?

    Native AVCHD file support is the first thing I expected for the new iMovie. Does iMovie 11 support native AVCHD (.mts) files? Or it has the same painful way of importing and converting AVCHD files to the other format like iMovie 09?
    Is there any improvements for AVCHD file supports in iMovie 11?

    I don't think it does. I picked up a copy this afternoon after the keynote (I like the way that Apple stores have them in stock right away - and at $49 it wasn't really a painful experiment) hoping this would be the case, but it does not appear to be so.
    After installing, I tried to import some loose .mts files, but they are greyed out. Some brief exploring turned up nothing to help.
    This is really too bad. It would be so nice to be able to save the individual .mts file on my hard drive, and access them when necessary. I'm fine with the intermediate encoding iMovie does before editing, but forcing me to use the silly file structure of my camera's hard drive, or an iMovie archive (basically the same thing) is frustrating.
    Allowing the import of naked .mts files would be a huge step forward.
    Assuming I'm not wrong about this, what is the best way to work around this? What is the best way to bring loose .mts files into iMovie? (And I hope I'm not hijacking the thread by asking this.)

  • AVCHD .mts files imported but optimised files play fast in QT and FCPX 10.1.1

    Hi Guys
    Panasonic HC-V700 AVCHD .MTS files (from within the 'Stream' folder) imported and optimised into FCPX 10.1.1 but the imported/optimised clips (found in the Transcoded Media>High Quality Media folder) play too fast in QT and FCPX 10.1.1 . Was able to do this fine until yesterday.
    Using OSX 10.9.1 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7 with just 4GB RAM (hoping to get faster, souped-up new iMac very soon).
    When playing the 1080/50p clips on the camera's video player they play at normal speed. Weirdly, today, FCPX has 'acknowledged' the camera on the import window despite the 1080/50p footage (previously it didn't show the camera as a valid import 'archive' on the import screen). Now, on the import window whenever I play a clip it also plays too quick.
    Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Warm regards
    Peter

  • No sound when importing AVCHD MTS files into premiere cs5.5

    Hello
    I have footage that was shot with the sony nx sf-100 and it is ACVHD mts files.
    when I import the files to the bin, it is being imported without sound (no sound track at all when dragged into the timeline).
    The footage has sound - that has been confirmed.
    I am working in an AVCHD sequence and I'm importing the files using the media browser.
    There are many refrences to this problem online - but all give the solution of recompresing the videos in a new format, although every documentaion cliams that premiere is supposed to take AVCHD natively including sound.
    Does anyone have a solution for this?
    Thanks,
    Oded

    My apologies. I beleive I mixed up my versions for support. 5.5.x should support PCM audio. Thank you, Jeff.
    I have confirmed that I am indeed getting audio with files from a Sony NEX FS-100 camera, with CS5.5.2 on my systems. Oded, would it be possible to send me a sample file that exhibits this issue for you?
    Things to try are deleting your Media cache (Preferences > Media > Media Cache Database, click Clean button). Make certain that your copy of Premiere Pro is activated: check under Help menu you should see "Deactivate..." noted.
    Thank you.

  • Wrong settings when create a sequence from an AVCHD (.mts) file from canon xa20. Adobe premiere sets as AVC-intra 100 1080i

    I don't know why Adobe premiere CC automatically adjust an .mts file from my canon XA20 (AVCHD based on h264 1920x1080 25p) like an AVC-intra 100 1080i. While editing it appears crispy and noisy. Im editing in a windows 7 64 bits plattform. Must I install de properly codec on my machine ¿?
    Any suggestion ¿?

    Yes it does that. AVCintra is just a name for a preset. Set the preview codec to i frame mpeg only
    And no, dont install any codec.
    You can alsway select a AVCHD preset from the list.

  • After Effects CS5 and Sony HDR-SR1 AVCHD (.MTS) File Format

    Hi everyone,
    I've just started with After Effects, and I the only video camera I have is an old Sony HDR-SR1 camera, which records in 1080i and uses the AVCHD file format. I've recorded a few videos, in which I proceeded to try and import to After Effects. The program came up with this error: "After Effects error: '0020.MTS' cannot be imported - this '.mts' file is damaged or unsupported." I understand that this error is pretty common, but I do not understand how to fix it. I've already tried the Media Encoder, and the videos that come out are horrible quality videos that are nothing like the videos recorded on the camera. I've also tried Sony's included Picture Motion Browser (I have the latest version) and when I try to convert, the video also comes out horrible quality and always has these annoying lines running across the video. Please help!
    Thanks!

    Actually, the AE should recognize the AVCHD footage, since I imported one of my recoedings, which is 1080p MTS to AE, and it worked. Maybe the problem lies in 1080i. I always deinterlace my 1080i files and then import them to AE. You may try to deinterlace your files and then import them to AE.
    As for the deinterlacing, you can google or you can give brorsoft mts converter, which I'm using now,  a try. It has a codec for AE and Adobe Premiere, wchich make it easier to import files to AE. Besides, you can convert your 1080i files to MPEG-2 and then import them to AE.
