Camera has MTS files that FCP can't see

Hi,
I have captured 4 clips on our Panasonic camera. The camera shows 4 clips in its screen viewer, but when we log and transfer in FCP 7 it only shows 1. The odd thing is, this 1 clip isn't one of the 4 on the cameras screen.
Any idea where those 4 clips are so I can get FCP to capture them?
Best wishes
Michael

Not sure if your problem has been solved or not, But I would still like to post what I found as a solution. Here is a blog that help me solve this kind of issue as you can see. And pretty much sure you know that mts files can't be import to fcp directly. And here is another aspect. if your mxf files contains more than one audio channels, then if you use some converter like Handbrake, MPEG Streamclip, it may mess them together. Or you can find an app to help you convert them seperately, suggest you imixmxf if you need. just google it. Good luck with that. And this post is just for someone who has the similar problem. Hope it will help someone

  • Places area has four files that I can not remove.

    In the Places area in Finder there are four "files". They are CSPHP,cnphp specs,CNPHP and 96. Any ideas what these are? Tried to drag and remove by all methods but still they can not be removed and this is a bit concerning not knowing what they are.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Did you try holding down the Command key while dragging the item out of the Sidebar?

  • Converting MTS file that is not on a camera?

    I have an hour-long MTS file that I am needing converted to ProRes (or some format I can edit in Final Cut). This MTS file is no longer on the video camera (Canon HV40) hard drive. It is only on the computer. And of course, I no longer have the video camera. Is it possible to accomplish this using Log and Transfer, or am I going to have to buy a program like Voltaic? I am using FCP 6.0.5. The file is AVCHD (not MPEG-2). Thanks!

    Not an expert in this area by any means, but have you tried to convert it using MPEG Streamclip (Free) or Voltaic ($40)?

    Not sure if streamclip recognises .mts, but AFAIK Voltaic does.

    >No, you are not right.
    Going to question the biggest contributor to this forum?  (Yes, my ego is talking).  OK then...
    >Install the QT-Plugin, restart your Mac and you will be able to import and use .mts files in FCP 7.
    Sure...yes, that makes it POSSIBLE to read the files natively in FCP...if they come from a Panasonic camera. BUT...just try working with those files.  Right away the system won't be nearly as responsive as it would if they were ProRes. First...there are no sequence settings for that format...so you'll have to use ProRes and have a green render bar.  BUT, that's no big deal.  The big deal is trying to work with the AVCHD format, which is VERY processor intensive...inside an application that doesn't like to work with much outside of the FCP editing codecs.
    Is it possible? Sure? Will it work well...will you be as zippy and error free as if you converted to ProRes? Not by a long shot.  OH, but don't just take my word for it.  Go ahead...try it and see.  No skin off my nose...no waste of my time.  See how well this works. 
    I'm just here to relate real world working solutions to issues.  And yes, I did try that plugin, and boy, was editing a pain.

    if it's ntfs microsofts filesystem then you need a windows machine to recover them

  • My MacBook has 30gb of audio files that I can't find

    So there you can see that I have almost 30gb of audio files that I can't find anywhere. None of the folders say that it has many files.

    I don't, I deleted the files from the iTunes folder.

    You can't view your back up files at icloud.com.
    You can't view your camera roll and you can't view your Photo Stream files at icloud.com.
    The icloud back up plan allows you to "restore" your iOS device from the files you backed up at icloud.com.

  • I have DVD's that I made from iMovie. I would like to know a way I can bring them back into a file that I can somehow transfer to my iPad, so I can show movies on it, the iPad.

    Pad2, the new iPad Supported Video Formats & Movie Formats
    H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    Here's one way to install. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Nas on airport extreme not recognized by time machine. same nas was previously used as time machine backup on different airport extreme. are there any configuration files that i can delete to fix this problem ?

    nas on airport extreme not recognized by time machine. same nas was previously used as time machine backup on different airport extreme. are there any configuration files that i can delete to fix this problem ?

    Time Machine has been working just fine, but in the last week or two it has given up the ghost. I reset the connections to the drive, and it will basically save a few bytes of data and then hang.
    Although Apple originally announced, prior to the release of the first 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Stations (AEBSn), that it would support Time Machine backups to AirPort Disks, they removed that option before they did finally release the base station for sale.
    Since then, Apple has posted (as you have noted) that they DO NOT support Time Machine backups to AirPort Disks. As far as I know, they have not changed from that position and those who do these backups find that they become corrupted over time. Sorry, but it sounds like you just confirmed that for yourself.
    1) Has one of the recent updates either on the AE (firmware) or OSX disabled this function?
    No. Again, this feature has never been supported by Apple for every generation of AEBSn released.
    2) Are there any changes I can make to get this working again?
    If your data backups are critical to you, then you will want to use a different solution for your Time Machine backup destination drive strategy. I would suggest that you connect your WD My Book directly to your Mac in the mean time.
    Your other options would be to either use a Time Capsule (which interestingly does support TM backups to AirPort Disks) or a non-Apple solution like the Drobo FS or HP MediaSmart server.

  • Updated to Mavericks and I get the upper left quarter of the screen blacked out on Time Machine. This means that I can't see the files. Any suggestions for getting rid of the black square?

    Ive tried disconnecting and reconnecting the Time Machine. And I've tried rebooting the iMac, but I still get the top left hand quarted of the screeen blacked out. I can scroll back through the back-ups but the back square means that I can't see the details of any file.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Got my iphone 4s today but the camera has a bug that i cant find reported anywhere

    Got my iphone 4s today but the camera has a bug that i cant find reported. When i take a picture or filming the camera screen shows the buttons in landscape mode( the buttons are at the bottom in landscapemode instead of the bottom end of the phone) and the object i am filming shows up 90 degrees rotated. If i hold the phone in landscapemode the object moves 90degrees rotated too. In i pan the phone the image on the screen goes up and down insted. Very weird.
    But when i check the video there is nothing wrong with the movie. Please help....

    Contact Apple and inform them you have AppleCare +. If your phone is working correctly they may or may not replace it, only they can anwer that question.

  • My iMac just crashed, and I had some documents open in Pages that were unsaved. Is there a temporary file or backup file that I can access as on a PC? (I have just looked in Timemachine which I had operating, but it did not seem to have any temp files).

    My iMac just crashed, and I had some documents open in Pages that were unsaved. Is there a temporary file or backup file that I can access as on a PC? (I have just looked in Timemachine which I had operating, but it did not seem to have any temp files in it at all - not sure what it would be useful for then).
    Any suggestions?

    Question asked and answered several times.
    If you didn't save, nothing is recoverable.
    iWork apps don't create temp files so, as far as you on't save something, Time Machine can't archive it.
