AVCHD video issues on CS6

Having just upgraded, my AVCHD files now dont play... or at least the video, audio plays fine but the video window remains either green or black, the files are all ok as i've checked in media player and QT.
If I open the same files in 5.5 then all is fine and the play ok. I;'m having to export the files from 5.5 as a match squence settings, then import in CS6 and then they work fine.
Any ideas very welcome.
All my video from my CANON 5d mk11 play perfectly....
Its just issues with the AVCHD files from my Sony MC2000.
many thanks

Hi Richard,
So do you have BOTH the CS5.5 and CS6 versions installed on the same machine? This could be an issue, it is best to completely uninstall the old version, run the Adobe Cleaner utility to make sure there are no remnants left, then do a clean install of CS6 and any updates.

Also, with tapeless video formats, it is best practice to copy the entire folder structure from memory card to hard drive, then in Premiere, use "Media Browser" to do the Imports.

Import AVCHD video footage into Premier Pro CS6 - MAC - AUDIO MISSING!

Hi,
Ive been attempting to import AVCHD video footage captured on a Panasonic into Premier Pro CS6 on my MacPro. I've tried this from the camera and after copying the entire folder to my desktop. The footage is there, but has no audio! I have read loads, forums, advice, YouTube vids and Adobe manuals, trouble shooting and help, but found no simple answer to this simple issue.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks too Jeff. Sandeep's post is a simple redirect to a post on Adobe which naturally I've already read before turning to the forum. The link then sends you to another link! Info. is too light on specifics, doesn't help! I have 6.0.5 as downloaded from Adobe... no joy! All remains the same, picture but still no audio! Maybe a compatibility issue with Panasonic's HC X900... but Panasonic's website is as light on info. as Adobe. I'm off to the shop to buy FCP or Avid.

Imovie on my ipad ...refuses to recognize AVCHD Video. Also when i remove video clips already used in a project, it is unable to recognize missing clips after I've put them back. How do I get around these 2 issues?

My iMovie refuses to recognize, import, or work with AVCHD Video. It also refuses the same video clips even after I have converted them to Mp4. Also, when I delete a video clip already used in a project, then later import the same clip back to my ipad, the software is unable to recognize and find the clip again! Help! How do I get around these issues?

Hi Craig,
I also got the second problem. The storyboard on iMovie trailer has all these missing videos. If I import them on my iPad it doesn't find them.
If you find a solution it would be much appreciated to share it here ... I'll do the same.
Thanks,
Rafael

PS CS6 has no sound with AVCHD videos from Sony Cybershot

System Specs:
PS CS6, fully updated
win7/64 fully patched
16gb ram, 11+ GB free
ssd scratch drive, 40gb free
camera: Sony cybershot dsc-hx30v
files: *.MTS
CPU: intel quad core sandy bridge 2600k, 3.4Ghz
GPU: AMD 6950 2gb
The videos play fine in VLC 2.0.1, windows media player, GSpot 2.70a (in thumbnail window). An ancient Nero showtime even sort of plays the video (choppy and partially mangled), but the audio is fine. VLC and WMP play smoothly at full screen, 2560x1600.
In PS, there is no audio. Both microphone icons have sound waves emanating and I have tried all 4 combinations of mute and play.
I can edit and save them to h.264, high quality, 1920x1080, 59.94 fps, progressive *.mp4 file. The video plays on the other players, but again there is no sound.
GSpot shows LAV splitter -> ffdshow addio decoder -> ac3filter -> default directSound device (see details below)
When playing in PS, the video is choppy. It will play for ~1/2 second and then stutter.
Searching for a suitable group with key words (photoshop cs6 avchd video no sound)
yields 505 groups. Looks like any group to have ever had cs6 in a thread. Hmmm.
It can't be a codec problem if every other video product I have plays the files. It is certainly not a hardware limitation. It looks like a PS bug.

Meredith,
It is perfectly legal to decode Dolby to simple stereo with the licensed codec included with Windows 7. There may be some restriction on writing AC-3 content in 5.1 format. If Adobe wanted to, it could read from the licensed, installed codec and write the edited files in any of the audio formats it does support.
I do not believe it is a can't; it's a won't.
"... only a few digital cameras on the market with that encoder."
There are dozens of digital cameras and camcorders from Canon, Hitachi, JVC, Leica, Panasonic and Sony which use AVCHD and many more are on the way.
Almost every medium and top-tier video editor also supports AVCHD/MTS format including Avid, Premier, Final Cut, AVS, Blender, VideoStudio, PowerDirector, Windoz Movie Maker, Nero, Pinnacle, Vegas and Openshot.
Adobe advertises on http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/features.html:
Intuitive video creation
Bring Photoshop editing power to your video footage. Easily enhance any clip using the full range of familiar Photoshop tools, and then create movies using an intuitive set of video tools.
Adobe needs to add a bit of fine print here:
Easily enhance any clip [1]
[1] Disclaimer: Adobe has made a strategic decision to withhold Photoshop support for Dolby sound common on many newer and higher fidelity cameras in order to not cannibalize sales of Premier Pro. If you have or plan to buy a video device from Canon, Hitachi, JVC, Leica, Panasonic or Sony, you may not be able to edit or even view movies with audio unless you also install Premier Pro ($799) or use a third party tool to perform audio brain surgery on your movie to rip your audio and hack it back into Photoshop in a non-Dolby form.
I feel that I was mislead by Adobe. And Adobe is still advertising this "Any Clip" claim even though the Dolby "defect" was reported in March in Beta testing. Please don't advertise what you don't support.
Disappointed,
    BrianP

HT202465 AVCHD video clips

Using Yosemite 10.10.2
All of a sudden, I can't import video clips to iPhoto. I believe it is since I updated iPhoto to new version.
I have tried drag and drop as this site says... Using AVCHD video with iPhoto '11 - Apple Support
and tried all 3 ways... and still won't work...
To get only the AVCHD files, you can import PRIVATE, AVCHD, or BDMV.
Please help and thanks in advance.

Dont know.
What about the slow down workflow?
I suppose dealing with hundreds of 60p clips interpreted at 23.976 could have something to do with it but then again, this issue didn't seem to happen until the last few months. I can't remember if I saw it happen prior to the last update. But it definitely didn't happen in CS6 when I wasn't GPU Accelerated (I was Software only due to the AMD GPU). Could all this be GPU related because why else would it not have occured before? Our workflow hasn't changed...only the program. The only other thing I think that was changed in the last few months was that I checked the media cache box that puts the clips with the original media. Other than that, no changes really.

No audio with my avchd videos - PSE8

I'm using PSE 8 and within the Organizer, I can view my avchd videos (shot with a sony hd video camera), however I am not able to hear the audio. If I view the video in another browser (ie., sony's picture motion browser), the sound is heard from the videos. I'm running vista on a dell xps 420, and have updated my drivers. Have also searched this site, but I don't see other mentions of this same problem. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

It's a codec issue. You need to have dolby decoders on your machine to make it working. Premiere Elements provide this decoder to Photoshop Elements.
What happens when you run these files in some other player?

AVCHD video revisited... again.

Ok... so I have been reading for a while and trying to wrap my mind around my HD video questions. I have a Canon HF100 -it seems I cannot even read the camera to retrieve the raw m2ts files for storage. I have played with the 3 USB settings of the camera to no avail. I will try a card reader tomorrow -I should be able to copy the raw files from the SDHC card.
I have downloaded the trial of VoltaicHD and it seems to be able to convert some m2ts files I had retrieved a few months ago using a PC and the software that came with the camera. This may work and allow me to store the m2ts files, as they are smaller (native camera compression) once I am able to get to them.
Has anyone had any issues with the shedworx software suite? Namely VoltaicHD, FlamingoHD, and RevolverHD? I believe I am going to purchase the full suite in hopes of creating a workflow to archive and utilize my video files. At least until mac comes up with a working AVCHD video solution.
I guess my other option would be to use disk utility and a "disk image" work around. Haven't tried this, but reading here, as I understand it, its possible to "fool" the editing program into thinking that a camera is connected? As I was saying though... I am unable at present to retrieve the raw files unless I allow iM09 / FCE to retrieve and convert them. The purchase of additional software to archive my files seems like a waste but are there any other options?
Edit: Another option for burning and archiving that I have not looked into I guess is Toast. Has anyone had any luck with this program? I am not sure but it does seem that the shedworx stuff may be a little new. Toast has been around for a while. I would like the option of having as high a resolution as possible -I would very much like to eventually be able to burn to bluray also. Thank you!

I have an HF200 and am going through similar pains.... my best results seem to be with VLC Player, which is free. The current version does proper deinterlacing so the results look fantastic... that is, unless you're playing a file bitrate that's too high for your processor to handle.
My 2.66GHz unibody MBP handles up to 12Mbps files just great, with no visibly dropped frames. 17Mbps is very choppy and unwatchable. 24Mbps... forget it.
It seems the issue is that there's no hardware acceleration available via the OS, even though my nVidia chipset supports it.
Windows 7 has native support for AVCHD, and I can play even the 24Mbps files with no issues on my desktop, even though the hardware isn't as fast as my MBP (2.4GHz Conroe).
Apple has some catching up to do with HD camcorder support, and transcoding to iMovie is a waste if all you want to do is watch movies directly from your SD card or camcorder.
But, if you have a fast enough processor, VLC should work fine, and it's free. Or you can dual-boot with Windows 7.

Importing AVCHD Recent Issues

A few weeks ago I could import my AVCHD videos files from my Canon Camera into final cut 10.1.3 with no issues. Just recently, I can not longer import. I can see the canon and view the videos under the finder, but FCP and iMovie no longer allow me to import my movies
I am not sure if I made any updates to any settings, but I am sure I did since its no longer allowing me to import. Attached is a screen shot of what the import looks like.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/a8vytboof8snzsd/Screen%20Shot%202014-10-05%20at%2011.4 7.50%20PM.png?dl=0

In the Region Inspector on the left of your Arrange you find a little box labeled "follow tempo" - if you untick that box the Audio will play at the original speed.

How to play back AVCHD video files without jerkiness result?

Hi all, I have an iMac 27" 3.06Ghz as well as the new MacBook Air 13 1.86Ghz, and both have 4GB of RAM. When I tried to play back AVCHD video files (*.mts) recorded from my Canon HF200 HD camcorder, the play back is always jerky and choppy. I have tried various software like Perian for QT, VLC, MPlayer Extended, all have the same result. However, I can play back other 1080p files like MKV and MOV just fine.
Is the jerkiness problem that I am seeing due to underpowered hardware? or is it I am not using the correct software? Note that I am not trying to edit HD videos, I just want to be able to play them back smoothly. I can play the same files on Windows 7 natively without any issues.
I am curious if any of you have the same problem. Please help!
Thanks in advance.

Swaza,
Just thought I would jump in and share some experiences with .tod and .mod files.
I too have the JVC GZ-HD7 camera and I can confirm that the new version of the MPEG-SC 1.93beta will open and convert .tod to .mov for use with iMovieHD. I am not sure that the files can be used with iMovie08 since I have not tried, but it will work in iMovieHD just like any other qt or .mov file import.
Also, you can use the QTpro plugin that came with the camera (should be on the CD as the only MAC software available.) This will allow you to open the files in QT and convert them to any other format needed. This plugin unfortunately does not allow QTpro to open the older .mod files of previous JVC cameras. For that you can still use MPEG-SC.
In my experiences over the last few weeks, having mistakenly dumped all of my footage onto my hdd as I used to do with my older JVC cameras, I am now stuck with 3 hours of footage on my HDD as .tod files. I have been struggling to find the right blend of codec type, compression amount, fps, and quality to convert these files in an acceptable resolution (1920x1080 full - another mistake since iMovie08 will not import this quality but will import the 1440 CBR mode.) Converting these files is a nightmare and has become a stain on my otherwise wonderfu lexperience with this new camera (It is an awesome camera despite what negative stuff the "Canon fanboys" are saying!) It takes an unbelievably long time to convert. And you will find that when viewing these files in QT either as .tod or even after converting to .mov, they will be jerky and stutter. I believe this is more to the fact that the files are just really huge. Playback inside of iMovie06HD was perfect for me though.
Hope this helps out and I hope others may offer solutions as to what codecs they are using and what settings they are using to keep the quality as high as possible when converting these files.

STILL NO FLUENT AVCHD-WORKFLOW in PPro CS6??? COME ON, ADOBE!

I am very pleased with my CS6 Suite. I cannot tolerate the fact, that an issue like the AVCHD-workflow in PPro CS6 isn't patched until today. AVCHD is a very common Codec and a professional NLE-Software has to able to handle it! Transcoding from one Codec to antoher and back is a time killer! It leaves my work less profitable. So what is the status quo at the moment? Please be honest and do not tell me "We know about the issue, but don't have a timeline yet.."
Thank you very much.
Best,
ABR

Please be honest and do not tell me "We know about the issue, but don't have a timeline yet.."
Well, which is it, honesty or a fabrication?
"Hi All,
My name is David McGavran, I am the Senior Engineering Manager on Premiere Pro. We are aware of the issue and are able to reproduce it. We are currently investigating what we can do about it. We apologize for the issues and hope to be able to give guidance soon. I will continue to check back in here and update you guys as we have more information.
Cheers

Premiere Elements 10 reinstalled in windows 8 the monitor give no picture during editing play of avchd video 1020x1080i 25. Have worked OK before in win 8.

I have reinstalled premiere elements 10 in win 8 and after reinstallation it is not possible to edit the video because the monitor does not show the pictures when I play the video, only sound comes OK. What can I do?

toresak91
Are you saying that all you did was to reinstall Premiere Elements 10 on the same computer? The video card/graphics card was the same before and after the reinstall? There is a serious Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue, and I just want to make sure that you are not caught up in that issue. See the fullest details and information on this in the Announcement at the top of this forum.
What worked before the reinstall of Premiere Elements 10
a. Premiere Elements 10 as a whole
or
b. The playback of this specific AVCHD file in Premiere Elements 10?
If you are using this never before used AVCHD file in the reinstalled Premiere Elements 10, there is always that possibility that you are now using AVCHD.avi which is not supported by Premiere Elements. AVCHD video compression is supported but not the specific combo of AVCHD.avi.
Please review, consider, and clarify and then we will customize a troubleshooting to get to the core of the matter.
Thank you.

Elements Organizer (v12) not displaying AVCHD video after import

I installed Premiere Elements 12 on my Windows 8 (x64) computer. After I import a MTS (AVCHD) video from either my camera and/or my hard disk,the audio plays but no video is displayed. The MTS file (video + audio) work fine in every other program on my computer, including the Premiere Elements video editor. The only place it doesn't work is in Elements Organizer. I can even preview the video in the "Get Videos and Pictures from Files and Folders" import window from Organizer.
After importing the MTS file into the video editor, I exported it to AVCHD and tried importing the Premiere created AVCHD file in to Organizer but no luck.
Seems like there's some kind of plug-in issue, but I can't find any info on that. The codec must be fine, because the MTS file play everywhere else.
Appreciate any help/insight.

Thank you so much! Although it's not exporting quite as clear as before, it's much, MUCH better now that I've corrected the timeline dominance - I'd say 95% better; and it will be re-compressed by my clients for web streaming so it doesn't need to be perfect - but the initial quality was garbage.
I suspect when I exported my T2i footage as a ProRes file, than imported into After Effects, then back into FCP something happened along the way that messed up the quality slightly. Although the only difference in my method between FCP5 and 7 was converting to ProRes; which I only did for editing purposes as the native T2i footage needs to be rendered... which ended up being redundant as all my After Effects work needed to be rendered anyway. Ho hum.
Do you think the ProRes conversion could account for the quality loss? It wasn't just the footage that was grainy/fuzzy, it was also the After Effects graphic work, which is why I didn't think the converstion could be the culprit. Hm. I'll have to look into this more!
Thanks again - and so sorry for my delayed reply, I went on vacation shortly after I posted that message and only just got back to this project now

AVCHD Video

I do a lot of editing with AVCHD video and MTS files. Should I be editing them just as they are in Premiere or should I use the media encoder to change them into a different format? The issue I am having is that the video doesn't look as bright in Adobe when I edit it as it does when I play the video in Windows Media Player or on the camera. Thanks.

Premiere edits mts native. Make sure playback is set to full.
Copy whole card to hard disk and ingest via Media Browser.

Jabber for iPad video issue

How can I troubleshoot video issues?
I setup the iPad device (G711) and then placed a call to a Jabber for Windows (G729) phone. Audio worked fine but no video. I changed the Jabber for Windows to G711 and video started working?
Is Jabber for iPad going to support G729 and if so when?
Thanks,
