Trouble with flickering after converting AVCHD files to Apple Pro Res 22

Hi guys.
I have figured out that Apple Pro res 22 is the best format for my AVCHD files.
But I am having trouble with the files after converting them to this format.
Every 60 frames I have a blurred frame.
This results in a flickering effect when watching the clip.
The original MP4 clip (AVCHD) plays fine on the Mac but when I convert is it flickers.
I have captured a still shot of the frame here

Here are the settings I am using for the conversion

Here is the converted file in Apple Pro Res 22 format with the flickering

I'd appreciate any help that you can offer.

Actually I think I might have found the answer.
After diggin deaper into the camera manual I have discovered that the setting I had it on "Full HD" actually is interlaced not progressive. Even though tha badging on the camera says Progressive"
So I think something got lost when converting the files to apple pro res.
I just shot a 10 sec clip on "Full HR" which is the progressive function and it converted nicely.
I'll come back to this post after shooting and making a little test movie today.
Thanks for your help.
PS. I wonder what codec it actually shoots in. Apparently it is not AVCHD but MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 compression (I thought that was AVCHD)

  • Hi there. I shot with a nikon d7000. The clips look great on the viewer but quite bad on canvas (also after its been exported) I converted my clips to apple pro res 422 using mpeg streamclip. The size I used was 1920 x 1080. How can I fix these?

    This is the sequence:
    I know they both should match. Question is, should I re convert the clips in mpeg using different size settings? Or should I change the sequence settings? how?
    Thanks A LOT.

  • HELP: I have an impossibly long rendering time after converting .MP4 files from Go Pro Camera to .MOV on Final Cut Pro 7. PLEASE ADVISE.

    I am working on a project and shot guerilla style footage with a Go Pro camera, which produced .MP4 files incompatible with FCP7. When I converted the files to .MOV, I realized the rendering time in the sequence editor is impossibly long. I am working with a deadline and the rendering time exceeds the deadline, let alone editing time. Suggestions???

    Telling us you converted to .mov doesn't tell us much. MOV is a container that supports a very wide range of codecs. It is the specific CODEC that matters.
    You most likely did not convert the material to a FCP7 native format. ProRes is recommended and, given the compression of the GoPro, ProRes LT would be the best choice.
    Use Compressor to convert everything to ProResLT and life will be much simpler.

  • Re.problems with translator after converting pdf file.please help:-)

    Please can someone help me.
    i've converted a pdf file to a word document but it was a scanned document so word had to translate it but its come out as a load of gibberish.
    i have over a hundred pages of corrections to make because of it so i was wondering if any of you could either tell me what i could of done wrong r tell me how to do it right:-)
    thanks a bunch!!!

    You cannot use Reader to do what you want. Depending on the language of your original document, you might be able to convert the document from a scan to text with Acrobat Professional.  You can also investigate programs that are dedicated to OCR.

  • Trouble with formatting after converting word to PDF

    A portion of a page is cut off when I convert the word document to a PDF. What can I do to fix this? I have included some screen shots to demonstrate the issue. In the screen shot from the PDF you can see that the bottom of pg 60 is cut off, it is visible in the word document version. It is only this page which has the problem. The similarly formatted table on the following page, pg 61, is not cut off in the PDF form of the document. (The word doc is the first image and the PDF is the second.)
    Thank you for your time

    This is a WORD issue. When you are editing in WORD, select the printer to be the Adobe PDF printer (or set this to be your default printer) and then edit. WORD and most word processors reflow documents to best match the printer resolution. This will even happen if you switch between various paper printers. You can turn off this feature in WORD under the options, buried under compatibility for using printer metrics. I am not sure what WORD does when you turn off the use of printer metrics.
    As I said, the result is typical of word processors, If you want to end this behaviour then you would need to use a layout program like InDesign. Layout packages are WYSIWYG applications. I have my systems set to the Adobe PDF printer as the default and often print from Acrobat to a physical printer. Since I print PDFs to the printer more than WORD documents, this works well for me.

  • Converting h.264 to apple pro res 422

    when using compressor to transcode h.264 1920x1080 to apple prores 422 (using the stock compressor setting), noticed that there is a slight shift in chroma & hue and a slighter change in contrast in the prores files. have done this many times and never noticed before. is this normal?

    Yes. You are going from an 8-bit 4:2:0 file to a 10-bit 4:2:2 file. Color information is changing slightly.

  • Final Cut 7: Apple Pro Res Export Drops In File Size?

    Hello all. We are noticing a 30% drop in file size when, after importing a 5-minute Apple Pro Res HQ file into Final Cut and performing minor editing (essentially removing a few frames from the ends), the resulting export (also Pro Res 422 HQ) is noticeably smaller, going from roughly 2.5 GB at the start to 1.7 GB at the end. Has anyone seen this? Is this normal? Does it affect file quality? If so, is there a workaround? Thanks for any and all help!
    Sequence and imported clip settings both match and are at the highest quality. The original file was captured from a BetaSP into Final Cut as a Pro Res 422 HQ via a Sony DVW-A500 deck.

    Those numbers suggest the possibility that you captured 29.97 and exported 23.98. Any chance that's the case?

  • Trouble with safari after updating SL 10.6.8

    I updated my OS last night to 10.6.8  and today, in Safari I find that I cannot view amazon.com  When I open a page, much of it is blank.  Anyone else having trouble with amazon after updating to 10.6.8?
    michelle

    (This is a copy of my post in this thread.)
    I updated to 10.6.8 too, was suddenly unable to print to my before perfectly working printer (an HP Color LaserJet CP1515n hooked up to an AirPort Express), and started scouring the web for solutions. The more I tried, the more disappointed and frustrated I became. Then I came here, read about a possible solution in this very thread (the disk image 'Repair10.6.8.dmg') and became hopeful again.
    But alas...
    Sadly, this isn't working for me at all. I ran the script that supposedly fixes the print problems introduced in 10.6.8, but the print jobs still all pause the printer and fail with a 'broken pipe' error. It has nothing to do with the USB cable, as I can print just fine with the printer directly hooked up to my Mac wit that very same cable. I reinstalled the drivers, updated my printer's firmware, ran the repair script twice just to be sure, reset the printing system, even deleted all preference files with 'hp' in the name and having to do with printing, restarted my Mac. All with no result.
    Man, this is so frustrating! Anybody with any other suggestions or possible solutions?

  • Which codec after importing AVCHD files?

    I have AVCHD files, saved to card in the camera. 
    The files have .MTS extension, so I'm using ClipWrap to convert them to files that Final Cut Pro 7 can use. 
    I need to do basic editing with these video files and export them back out so another editor (on another computer) can do more elaborate editing with them.
    To maintain the 1920 x 1080 HD quality of the original files, which codec should I use in ClipWrap?  I tried the default one ("Rewrap - Don't Alter Video Samples") but that file doesn't work well in FCP (it imports, but scrubbing and editing with it is nearly impossible).  Other options listed include Apple Intermediate Codec, Apple Pro Res, Apple Pro Res HQ, Apple Pro Res LT, Apple Pro Res Proxy, and HDV.
    And then -- exporting the clips back out for the other editor:  which settings?

    Prores 422 should work fine.  If you have the card or have copied the card contents with folder structure intact, you can probably just use log and transfer within fcp instead of clipwrap.  What camera was the material shot on?
    If the other editor is using fcp, give him the prores files,.   If not, ask him what editing system he will be using and what kind of files he wants.

  • Anyone have trouble with IPad3 after installing OS6.1.3?  keeps crashing

    Anyone having trouble with iPad3 after installing OS6.1.3?  Mine keeps crashing.

    Mine seems to be just fine. 
    Try a reset,
    Reset your iPad by pressing the 'Sleep' and 'Home' button at the same time for about 15 seconds or so. Your iPad  will then go through a reset / reboot procedure and will be ready for use within about a minute.
    Don't worry about doing this as you will not lose data or settings.
    Good luck and do report back.

    After converting a file to *.pdf and saving it, how do you set the program to open this file automatically?

    No, I want  the file to open automatically, not to start the program on starting the computer. That way, I do not have to open the program, and open the file from the location just saved. Applies for any version of Adobe.
