DVD Sony camcorder, ts video files

I am trying to import the video files from a sony dvd camcorder into final cut. I imported the vob file, but it only imports a few seconds of the clip. How do I convert these files to be compatible with QT and final cut so I can edit?!
thank you all concerned....

Download "MPEG StreamClip", put the .vob files in their, and export as a DV stream, or quicktime.
FCP won't accept vob files

  • Can Premier handle the SONY camcorder MTS format files?

    I have a 1 year old Sony camcorder (model HDR-CX260V) and was trying to determine if Adobe Premier Elements can import the videos that that camcorder takes (seems to be MTS file format), import those videoes, edit them, and then output to a more universally recognized file type (that can be played on a TV/DVD and/or PC?
    I have done a # of web searches and don't seem to find a definitive answer on this.  Thanks in advance for any help.
         Fred

    Fred
    For now assuming a NTSC workflow.
    I have looked at the video specifications for the Sony HDR-CX260V and on paper it looks you should be able to import/edit/export it output, namely,
    a. 1080p60 (1920 x 1080 16:9 @ 60 progressive frames per second)
    b. 1080i30 (1920 x 1080 16:9 @ 30 interlaced frames per second)
    c. 1440 x 1080 HD anamorphic 16:9 @ 30 interlaced frames per second.
    You say that you have a .mts file extension.
    Premiere Elements 11 has project presets for each of the above.
    For TV/DVD viewing via the DVD player, you are going to need DVD-VIDEO format on DVD disc. In this case, NTSC DVD-VIDEO Widescreen format on DVD disc.
    Keep in mind:
    a. you will be going from 1920 x 1080 to the standard of the DVD-VIDEO format (720 x 480 frame size whether standard or widescreen)
    b. your interlaced source media will gave a Field Order (Scan Order) = Upper Field First; whereas, DVD-VIDEO has Lower Field First....that may need switching by selecting one of the Hard Disk Flash Memory Camcorder choices or using a regular project preset and using Field Options Reverse Field Dominance on the file on the Timeline.
    All this can be done in many versions of Premere Elements (with or without new Premiere Elements project preset 1080p60). More details on that later.
    But, if you do not now have any version of Premiere Elements, then please, before any purchase, download and install and try the free 30 day tryout of Premiere Elements 11 from Adobe. You need to verify that Premiere Elements 11 is compatible with your computer environment as well as your video importing/editing/exporting.
    We will be watching for your progress.
    Thanks.

  • Sony camcorder using Moff files

    Hi
    I am using premier elements 7.
    I have a Sony HDR-TG3 camcorder, all of the video content is uploaded and placed in Moff files.
    These are not readable using premier elements.
    I need a codec installed so that these files are recognised.
    Can any one help with that thought or is there other ways.
    Roger Gale

    The Moff files are the indexing files generated by Sony Motion Picture software when you get the files off the camcorder. They are not the video files. The video files are the .m2ts files which can be edited in PE7.

  • LR4 and Sony NEX-7 video files?

    I just installed LR4 and imported files from my Sony NEX-7, including raw files and video (.mts) files.   The thumbnail of the file has a little video camera icon in the bottom left, but no time lenth of video as I exprected.  And when I try to open a video file, the starting frame appears but there is no control bar under the video to allow me to "play" it and using the Spacebar doesn't start it either.  What am I missing in this process?

    I had a similar issue with a Sony RX100.  It was not supported by ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) until version 7.2.  Version 7.2 includes the NEX 7 too.  It may have been included in earlier versions, but I'm not sure.
    ACR is the free Adobe plug in that has all the camera and lens correstions and adjustments.  The camera makers create there RAW formats and Adobe then, one at a time, turns that into conversion data in ACR.  At least I think that's how it works!
    PSE 10 will only go to ACR 6.7.  It won't upgrade ACR past 6.7.  You have to buy PSE 11 to get functionality with ACR 7.2
    The way it works it that you have PSE search for updates under the Help menu.  When PSE 10 was new, it allowed me to update the ACR to 6.7.  In fact it insisted I do it.  The same was true with PSE 11.  It alerted me that an upgrade was available.
    A similar situation exists with Lightroom.  My Sony camera would not work with LR 4.  It had to upgrade itself to 4.2
    If you don't want to deal with the Adobe details, Sony provides "Image Data Converter" that can make files from the Sony RAW images that PSE10 can work with.
    Good luck!

  • Sony WX7 .mts video files not imported into iPhoto 11

    Apple indicates iLife ’11 supports AVCHD (.mts) files, however, I've been unable to get iPhoto 11 to import video files from the Sony WX7 camera. Photo's are imported properly via both usb and directly from the SD card reader in my Macbook Pro (i7) 2011, however, video files are not.  I've read that iMovie '08 supports Sony AVCHD 2011-model video cameras, but iPhoto 11 appears not to.
    Mac OS X v10.6.7, is fully up to date. Has anybody found a solution?

    Not sure where you are seeing that AVCHD is supported in iPhoto '11 but it is not - use iMovie to import your AVCHD movies - that works for my my Sony DSC-HX5

  • DVD Studio Pro recognizes video file as audio only

    Dear all,
    After encoding a file in Compressor using the HD DVD 60 min encoding setting (H.264 format), DVD Studio Pro recognizes this file as if it's audio, while it is in fact a video (I've checked and tested that).
    The strange thing is that I encoded a file a few weeks ago using the same settings and then everything went well.
    Any idea what this could be? I'm using DVD Studio Pro 4.2.1 and Compressor 3.0.5.
    Thanks in advance and best regards,
    Tim Metz

    It is very likely that your conversion choices involve CODEC's, that PrE cannot handle.
    Can you convert to a DV-AVI Type II, in the conversion program, as a test?
    If not, then please run your final converted file through either G-Spot, or MediaInfo, to determine which CODEC was used for the problem video.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS - some players, like VLC, contain many CODEC's for playback, that are not installed on the system, and many of those, even if installed, would not work with PrE.

  • Sony DSCRX-100 video files cannot be imported into Lightroom 5.3

    I have lightroom 5.3 running on Windows 7 64-bit. I am unble to import AVCHD video files from my Sony DSCRX-100. I am not sure why, as lightroom 5 supports this video format.

    I got LR to import AVCHD.
    I have the RX100M2.  I shoot stills most of the time, but when I shoot video, I use MP4 output. So I tried an AVCHD to see if I had problems importing.  At first I got the same results. Import did not see it on the SD card. Then I went into the SD card in Windows Explorer to see how the folder structure was laid out. I found a folder PRIVATE/AVCHD/BDMV with a file 00000.MTS.  I did a drag and drop of the .MTS file onto the LR Grid mode screen. Import came up and the file imported properly. Apparently LR did not see the folder, but when pointed directly to the folder it worked.
    My work environment: Win 7 64bit, LR 5.3.  I hope this helps.

  • Camcorder purchase video file type

    I am researching a camcorder for my school. One thing I have run into is that some camcorders only record in MP4 file type, which is not compatable with Windows Movie Maker (this is the software that all faculty have). Also, we are a Career and Technical Center - so we have a wide range of settings - outside and inside - good light and bad. Our price range is around $500.00. Can someone explain the different file types and which file type is the best and most versitile?

    Do you have any Vista or Windows 7 computers there? If so, you can get the latest version of Windows Movie Maker for free from the Live Essentials Download package which supports the formats used by the low-end camcorders in your price range. Otherwise, you will have to use a media package such as Nero or some other such thing which allows you to edit and create a variety of media files.

  • Playback of DVD Studio Pro 4 built SD video file - Menu 1 screen is WHITE!!

    I recently upgraded from FCP 4.5 with DVD Studio Pro 3 to FCS with DVD Studio 4. I have resolved a number of problems with the upgrade by reading "Apply Discussions", however, I need help with the following: When I import my mpeg2 and AC3 files into DVD SP4, I use the DVD SP4 palette to select an Apple Template for my MENU 1. (I like the "Theater Interior" menu template.) When I view the final product with the DVD SP4 simulator, everything is great including the colors in MENU 1. So, I build my program onto my desktop, the same way I did when I had DVD SP3. Now, the problem begins. When I view the built video TS file on my G5 Apple DVD player, or format it to a standard DVD-R with my pioneer 106D burner and play it back on my in-house DVD player, when the program MENU 1 is displayed on the monitor, it is WHITE in color. The menu is set to times out in 20 seconds. Once that happens, the programs runs perfectly. However, what's with the white menu screen? I can barely make out the buttons. When I click on a button, it operates and the color and program work perfectly from that point. I there an option to get rid of the white screen when the menu comes up? Somehow, when DVD SP4 builds the video file, MENU 1 is encoding with a white background rather than with the colors of the Apple template in use. This did not happen with DVD SP3. Can you help me?
    Ugene

    try switching the menu encoding from software to hardware (or vice versa) in your DVDSP preferences and see if that makes a difference for you.

  • Connect MacBook to DVD Player to Capture Vide Files?

    Can I connect my MacBook to a DVD player to capture video files? The camera I am borrowing does not connect to computers and only spits out Mini DVDs. I tried to get the files off my work PC and they are in a .VOB format. Is there any other way I can get these files onto my Mac ASAP?

    No.
    a computer needs digital 'files' or streams, a DVDplayer can not offer (few do...)
    your problem is the SIZE of the disks: never ever put miniDVDs into slot-in drives! get finally damaged (the drive, not the disk). only 'workaround' is usage of an external, tray dvd drive..
    converting a DVD into an editable format is a frequently question with dozends of options,... Search?
    is that camcorder on Apples list of iMovie supported devices?

    then, you can use iM as importer..

  • Sending large video files from a Mac to a PC

    I have a Mac computer. My son has a PC. I want to send him some video files - some individual files are 12GB in size. I understand that 16GB flash drives will not help me because they have a limit of 4GB per file.
    I thought I would put the video files on a hard drive with my Mac computer and send the hard drive to my son so that the video can be seen or downloaded on his PC computer. The video files are in HD high definition. But I'm sure there are compatibility problems I can't begin to conceive.
    I know I could use TOAST to make a dvd-r of the video files that can be played on a dvd player- but they would no longer be HD. I have Toast 9.
    Also - about these media drives - could I just put my HD video files on these new 'media' drives which can be connected to a TV ( that's the only other option I can think of ).
    I've also heard of software called MacDrive8 which supposedly makes a hard drive accessible to both PC and Mac computers. Has anyone used MacDrive8?
    How do Mac PC people share mega HD files these days?
    More info - This video file of the recent Little League Championships is in mpeg-4 format. Would Real Player or QuickTime on a PC play them ?
    As a last resort I could break up the video file into segments of 4GB or less and put them on a Flash drive - I think Mac/PC compatible Flash drives exist right ?
    thank you

    The 4GB single-file size limitation is because of the FAT32 file system usually used on these flash drives.
    An alternative would be to use the NTFS file system on these flash drives since it does not have the file size limitation and is also native for Windows PCs.
    But, while MAc OSX can read and write from/to the FAT32 file system, it can only read from NTFS file system.
    To enable write access to NTFS drives, you have to install a third-party file system driver like the free NTFS-3G http://macntfs-3g.blogspot.com/ or the commercial Paragon NTFS for Mac or Tuxera NTFS for Mac.
    I thought I would put the video files on a hard drive with my Mac computer and send the hard drive to my son so that the video can be seen or downloaded on his PC computer. The video files are in HD high definition. But I'm sure there are compatibility problems I can't begin to conceive.
    See my answer above. You run into the same compatibility issues as with a flash drive.
    I know I could use TOAST to make a dvd-r of the video files that can be played on a dvd player- but they would no longer be HD. I have Toast 9.
    Personally I wouldn't do this: too pricey (the discs) and not very praticable.
    Also - about these media drives - could I just put my HD video files on these new 'media' drives which can be connected to a TV ( that's the only other option I can think of ).
    Sorry, I don't know. Haven't looked into these devices that much.
    I've also heard of software called MacDrive8 which supposedly makes a hard drive accessible to both PC and Mac computers. Has anyone used MacDrive8?
    MacDrive is the "counterpart" so to speak to the above mentioned NTFS file system drivers for Mac OSX.
    It enables Windows to read and write from/to drives (harddisk, flash drives, etc.) that use the Mac OSX file system (MacOS Extended).
    How do Mac PC people share mega HD files these days?
    Either NTFS drivers for Mac OSX or MacDrive for Windows.
    More info - This video file of the recent Little League Championships is in mpeg-4 format. Would Real Player or QuickTime on a PC play them ?
    Don't know. Don't use video files that much. Sorry
    As a last resort I could break up the video file into segments of 4GB or less and put them on a Flash drive - I think Mac/PC compatible Flash drives exist right ?
    When using FAt32 file system every disk is compatible to Macs and Windows PCs.

  • .VRO Video files

    We have a Panasonic DVD (Model VDR M70) video camera. It uses mini dvd discs. The video files that are produced end with .VRO as the file ext. What can I use to read these types of files?
    Thank You

    Run for cover, there's yet another video container ...
    Some video-editing programs can read VRO files if the file extension is changed to .MPG or .VOB however this does not alter the file format. If the file does not open after changing the extension, you should change it back to .VRO
    VRO files can be converted by AVS video converter and some other tools.
    You could also try using MPEG Streamclip.
    Roxio Toast can also be used to open/convert .VRO's.
    One other possibility, I have heard (but not verified) that QT Pro with the Apple QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component can read .VRO files. Once opened in QT Pro you should be able to export a .MOV file (use an appropriate codec) as a self-contained movie; and then import the resulting file into FCE or iMovie.

    What are you going for....DVD-VIDEO Widescreen on DVD disc or AVCHD format on DVD disc?
    Are you doing your burn to disc with a check mark next to "Fit Content To Available Space" in the burn dialog?
    When you have the DVD 4.7 GB/120 min in the burner tray and are in the burn dialog ready to hit Burn, what does the burn dialog quality area show for Space Require and Bitrate with and without the check mark next to "Fit Content To Available Space"?
    Just in case mention....the DVD disc with the 4.7 GB/120 min in reality is 4.38 GB.
    The goal is to find out if you are overlooking the "Fit Content To Available Space" option in the burn dialog. Depending on the circumstances to be defined, use of that option does not necessarily mean a compromise in the end product quality.
    Let us start here and then move forward based on the details of your reply.
    Thank you.
