60P AVCHD and my Sony HDR-PJ50V

I normally use 60i for my videos. If I select 60p, I get a dialog that says "Progessive cannot be used for DVD or BlueRay". I believe this is so if I choose to record a DVD directly from camera.
Since I share to QT, I believe I should be able to use 60p and burn the QT file to DVD as I do with 60i. Correct?

That's great to hear, Mr. Fahnestock, and I'm sure the recipients of the DVDs are happy to have a chance to attend the lectures, if not in person, at least via your DVDs.

  • Can I use XAVC-s  4K, AVCHD and Mpeg4 (Sony HDR CX900) in Première Pro CS6 in EUROPE?

    I live in Belgium, Europe. I use a Sony DCR TR 64E high definition camera and want to upgrade to full HD 1920 x 1080.  The Sony HDR CX900 videocamera uses different formats: XAVC-S  4K 50/25/24 fps, AVCHD 50/24/50i fps and MPEG4 1280x720  25 fps.  Can I use all these formats in Première Pro CS6 and export it to DVD.  Will Première accept these formats and will there be no conflicts exporting to DVD to be used in Europe?

    Thank you, Kevin for your quick and helpfull reply.
    It seems that we have to wait for the new presets such as  XAVC, XAVC-S, 4k etc until Première Pro adds them in an upgrade.
    So, is it correct to say that only AVCHD is left for full hd 1920x1080?  For as much as I know, MPEG4 has only 1280x720.  The remaining question is: how can I know, or setup the camera, to produce in AVCHD? And finally, will there be no conflict or loss of quality with European standard PAL for DVD which uses 25 fps, knowing that AVCHD uses 50, 24 and 50i? 
    I reply by e-mail, because I do not know how to reply to your answer in the Adobe forum.  I am also not quite familiar with the rewarding points.  Can you clarify this to me, because I want to give you some reward for your answer.
    Thanks again.

  • Using my Sony HDR-PJ50V

    In October of this year,I recorded 16, 1.5 hour lectures at a remote location using the Sony HDR-PJ50V camcorder and transfering to an external hard drive every night, for back-up. Using Sony's HQ HD 60i setting, I exported each one to QT and burned to DVD with Toast 8. The DVDs play in the letter box mode which is what I want. I don't remember , however, selecting letter box.
    Also, when I use Easy Setup, I can select any of the i60 AVCHD or HDV options. My videos still work ok.
    I also send the QT file to Toast 8 for Divx burn to DVD and use Divx payer to play in full HD.
    Even though I have been very successful at producing videos, there is a lot that I do not know.

  • I have a Mac OS X and a Sony HDR-CX7 camcorder.  When I get onto the sony webpage to download program to import movies onto my Mac, they only have downloads for Windows.  How can I get a program for my Mac?

    I have a Mac Os X and a Sony HDR-CX7 camcorder.  When I get onto the Sony webpage to download the program so I can import my movies, they only have programs Windows.  How do I get this for my Mac.

    You shouldn't need any application except what you already have: iMovie, iDVD, iPhoto....
    To check on compatibility with your model camcorder, check these out:

    Some formats are not readable by the above; you can use something like MPEG Streamclip to convert the footage or Quicktime Pro (as mentioned in one of the articles).

  • Does final cut pro x support avchd files from sony HDR-cx260

  • Sony HDR-CX7 and Final Cut Studio 2 ???

    Hey there people,
    I live in Australia and I am new to this forum & couldn't actually locate a specific thread for my questions so hopefully anyone could be of assistance.
    Basically, I have just bought a Macbook Pro 2.4ghz notebook, Final Cut Studio 2 and a Sony HDR-CX7 hi def camcorder.
    Has anyone come across issues with Final Cut Studio picking up the hi def clips straight from the Sony camcorder when you try to import files to Final Cut? After some research, it seems as though this can simply be fixed by buying a FireWire cable to connect from the camcorder straight to the FireWire port on the notebook. Is this correct??
    Any assistance would be great or if anyone knows of a link to a thread specifically for the Sony HDR-CX7 and Final Cut Studio 2. The standard def seems to work ok but the hi def isn't picked up on either the Macbook direct or Final Cut Studio. I just would like to ensure that i am able to use the camcorder hi def with Final Cut
    Cheers!!

    You should be able to transfer from the camera to FCP through the log and transfer window with a FW cable... FCP 6.0.1 added AVCHD support anyway...

  • 1080p/60p AVCHD from Sony HX9V or HX100V

    Can anyone confirm if 1080p/60p AVCHD from a Sony HX9V or HX100V will work?

    Tom Wolsky wrote:
    This is not necessary. FCP can edit either 50p or 59.94p media. You can use ClipWrap to rewrap the AVCHD file to QuickTime before importing it.
    I've tried the FREE remux (http://www.nef.wh.uni-dortmund.de/%7Emt/remux/) for rewrapping the MTS files from my HX9V (US model, 60p) and I got a m4v file which is displayed as 59.92p in FCP. Will this be OK or do I need real 59.94p to avoid sync problems in longer movies? Thanks.

  • Canon HV10 or Sony HDR-HC3 for iMovie HD 6

    In case you're interested…
    I'm in the process of reviewing both the Canon HV10 and the Sony HDR-HC3. Both use Mini DV tapes. I've heard hard disk models don't work with iMovie HD6.
    I've tried both on my Intel iMac at 2.16 Gz and this is what happened…
    Sony HC3
    I used Firewire cable (must be Firewire - Sony calls it iLink) and plugged in the cam with iMovie already opened. Clicked to the camera icon and… Nothing happened. There was no recognition of the camcorder at all. Zilch. I fiddled, checked the camcorder's audio was set to 16bit and changed several prefences in iMovie but still nothing. I had previously set the cam's time too. I've since learned the HC3 and many other Sony's are incompatible with iMovie HD. It's a lovely camcorder but unless you download some extra software – as mentioned in the forums – it ain't gonna work.
    Canon HV10
    Performed the same Firewire connections and, lo, the camcorder was detected and I was able to begin importing HD visuals. But then… On immediate playback after importing I noticed the audio was running at half speed – subtley – the visuals too. I spent hours shooting short bits, importing them with other settings, and every time voices came out low and slurred. My wife sounded like a bloke. I posted the problem here and someone told me the HD takes a long time to render. So bear that in mind. And don't be impatient like me.
    In this instance, the Canon wins.
    Apple iMac 2.16   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  
    Apple iMac 2.16   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  
    Apple iMac 2.16   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  
    Apple iMac 2.16   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I'm really confused now. I've set the HC3's settings to HDV (not Auto) and the iLink Conv to OFF. And still no joy. I've even tried 'Magic Movie' for which it searched for a camera but found nothing. I know the Firewire cable works because I've used it on the Canon and my own, older Digital-8 Sony Handycam.

  • View Footage from FCP to Sony HDR-HC7 Camera

    Hi all,
    I have final cut pro and a Sony HDR-HC7 camera with a SAMSUNG external monitor. I'm trying to view edited video from FCP to my camera then through HDMI to my SAMSUNG external monitor. I can't get this to work.
    This works fine through my DVDPRO deck then component to SAMSUNG external monitor.
    Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
    mdawg

    Thanks for the answer.
    Now I tried to link my iMac directly to my television (mini DVI to HDMI) to watch my movie, but I got no picture on my television. It is a Panasonic Viera, HD ready (TH-42PV60E). It has 2 HDMI inputs. Has anybody succeeded yet in doing this?

  • 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.

  • AVCHD Log and Transfer - with Sony HDR-SR7

    I have FCE4 running on my Mac Mini. 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo. The FCE4 program was installed by my son using his account. He uses it the most and it has been working fine for him until now. No new FCE4 updates have been loaded. However, all of a sudden he can no longer "log and tranfer" the AVCHD files from our Sony HDR-SR7. The error is "AVCHD media is unsupported on PowerPC based hardware". Our Mac Mini is Intel based.
    If I login to my account it works fine. I deleted my sons preferences in ~/Library/Preferences/FinalCut User Settings as well as the *.plist file. Rebooted and still he gets the same error above.
    Somehow the FCE4 program thinks that the computer is a PowerPC but only when run from my sons account. Any Help would be appreciated? FOMR

    Is you're son's account and admin account?

  • Sony HDR-CX560V 1080/60p --- is it supported?

    Anyone have any experience with this camcorder or similar Sony AVCHD?

    I second this request. About 6 months ago, I bought the same camcorder (Sony HDR-CX560), and iMac quad core, and Final Cut Express assuming that Sony Camcorders would work with FCE. It was a bad assumption and I'm still stinging from the major outlay of cash.
    The best way I've found to get my footage into FCE is to import it via iMovie (which sees my Sony camcorder) then bring those files into FCE.  Despite the camcorder supporting 1080/60p, I can't get iMovie to import that footage, so I'm stuck at 1080/30i if I want to edit it. It's not the elegant solution I was hoping for when I forked out all of that money.
    I'm prepared to move to FCP X right away if it improves this situation (and some of my HD export quality concerns). First I need someone to let me know if this camera (or one of the similar Sony HDR-CX series cameras is seen by FCP X and allows you to import HD (and hopefully1080/60p) video directly into the app. If it can't then you can add me to the list of people who are disappointed with FCP X, but at least I won't have wasted another $300.
    A 30-day trial version in the app store would be a great way to answer questions like these. Any real world experiences which anyone can share would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!!

  • I have iMovie 09 and have successfully used an older Sony Handycam to directly capture and record. Now I have a Sony HDR-PJ230 and it is not recognized. Do I need to upgrade to iMovie 11 or ???

    Now I have a Sony HDR-PJ230 and it is not recognized in iMovie09. Do I need to upgrade to iMovie 11 or ???

    Hi jcm2656,
    iMovie ’09 does not support the Sony HDr-PJ230 camcorder. See this article for a list of cameras supported for that version of iMovie -
    iMovie '09: Camcorder Support
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3290#1
    iMovie ’11 however, does support it. See this article -
    Apple - iLife '11 Help - iMovie ’11 Supported Cameras

    Note that iMovie does not support footage recorded in 1080-60p from this Camcorder.

  • How to import and edit a 3D video made with Sony HDR-TD10E camcorder, with .MVC file?

    How to import and edit a 3D video made with Sony HDR-TD10E camcorder, with .MVC file?
    I have PremierePro-CS5 installed.
    This stereo 3D camcorder (Sony HDR-TD10E), output an .MVC (MultiViewCoding) file, coded in H.264 format.
    This format is already compatible with Bluray3D stereoscopic format.
    1) But, how to edit the .MVC in Premiere?
    2) What plugin should I use (if exists) for PremiereProCS5?
    3) Cineform Neo3D, can manage the .MVC format? Can convert it to Cineform format file, for import it into Premiere?
    4) What software should I use to convert an .MVC video to an AVCHD H.264 file, and import it into PremierePro CS5 or CS5.5 for editing?
    Thanks!

    Sorry, I am Italian, it is very difficult for me to understand what he says!
    I can just read the english text, or follow the actions of a videotutorial!
    Thus my question is the same:
    -What software can do that?
    -Sony Vegas 10 do the Bluray3D authoring?
    -For MVC editing, should I wait for Adobe CS6? Or is it planned an update for CS5.5?

  • Sony HDR-SR11 /AVCHD/NON-INTEL MAC/HELP

    I have called both sony and apple tech support and both offered little help today.
    I have a Sony HDR-SR11 that I shot some HD content with. The computer registers that the camera is there as an external HDD. Sony's FAQ suggested that I save the AVCHD file to my HDD and it should work....NOPE
    I hooked it up to a PC and installed the software it comes with and I was able to view my files but not export them into a normal format.
    I have 2 sets of files one set is .m2t and the other is .mts both say they are Unix Executable files..***!
    I have a Power MAc G5 running Leopard and Final Cut Pro 6 I ran the software update and it says that as of today 100% up to date yet it says that FCP should be 6.0.2 mine says 6.0
    Apple support said that it may not even work on a non-intel Mac.....HELP
    anyone get this to work, supposedly Imovie work s with it but the files are grayed out in the menus for imovie so I dunno all I know is I need this footage off the camera ASAP.
    Thanks

    I came here actually looking for a different solution and not the one I'm about to say... but I will tell you that the new iMovie will import the video straight off the camera (in either 960x540 or 1920x1080). It's not ideal, but it works.
    In fact, I'm doing so right now, but I came here hoping there might be news of a new fix so that FCP will import it directly (it will not, log & capture will not do it, just so others are clear on this).
    That said, the video off the camera looks very nice. I'm still happy with the camera, even if I do have to do one hoop jump before I can edit.

Maybe you are looking for
