Capture HDV as mp3 & can't import projects!

First of all a hi to all here
I was working with Premiere CS6 before but my HD broke down and decided not to use the image backup but to do a new and fresh install on a new 2TB HDisk
Working with Windows 7 64
I have all my projects folders with the footage saved and made a copy of all.
Now I can't open any of my CS6 projects, saying some problems that it can't open the project (This project contained a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type) or error decrompresing audio or video.
So that is the first problem
Second is when I caputure video from my JVC PoHD cam it does the popup window at the stop command does not come to ask to save the video (have the settings checked on PAL, my system, HDV checked
Instead I can see the video, not in my media browser on Premiere but in the folder as MP3
What can be wrong?
I installed after uninstall with the Adobe tool again but the problem remains.
Also installed Functional Content but also this did not help
I am out of any ideas how to solve this, maybe someone had the same and found a solution?

Please read this FAQ:

Can't import project from older version

I can't import project into a newer version of final cut as the project is whited out.and when i do get around it the error says:
The document "CurrentVersion.fcpevent" could not be opened Final cut pro cannot open files in the "final cut pro event" format.
I'm working in 10.0 and trying to open on another computer in 10.1.4
Any ideas would be great.
thanks

10.0 and 10.1.4 are very different, but in neither of the the procedure included "opening" such files.
In 10.0, you simply let the content be in the designated locations and the program would find it.
In 10.1 and beyond, projects and events reside in libraries, which are now like regular FCP X "documents" thare are opened and closed in the common way documents usually are.
To use older material, you need to update it. This is done by letting the stuff in its original locations, starting FCP X and doing File->Update Projects and Events... This creates a new library with your old material.

Using Premiere Pro 6 - Capturing HDV .mpegs - These can't be seen by other programs like Compressor?

I'm using XHA1's using a Canon HV20 to capture via FW to my IMAC with 10.7. I'm using Premiere Pro 6 and have been using Plural Eyes to do audio sync for the past year.
About 6 months ago when I upgraded to Plural Eyes 3 (which they don't support video thumbnail preview for HDV) I noticed my MPEG files created in Premiere Pro could not be opened in Compressor to change to Apple Pro Res or do anything else with.
So, what I would like to know is there a way of capturing to some other file format than .mpeg using an HDV preset in Premiere Pro? I do weddings every weekend with 3 cameras doing hour long ceremonies. So, audio sync is real important and being able to see those thumbnails would be great.
Finally, when I export my XML to the desktop and bring it back into to Premiere Pro it "squeeshes" the HDV footage into 4:3 aspect ratio. Which I then create a new Sequence, select all, copy and paste and now I have 2 sequences to keep track of.
I realize these are not earth shattering - but they would sure save precious hours over a weeks time while doing many repetive actions. Thanks for any advice.

I have same experience/problem:
- PluralEyes does not show HDV thumbnails
- Windows version crashes (I tryed initial version when WIN support was added)
- Premiere still needs XML export-import, so stereo audio becomes double mono audio
I'm still using PluralEyes version 2, which is at least working:
- use PluralEyes Connector to export from Premiere directly, that opens PE2 and asks you which timeline you want to sync
- when done, exit PE and it will automatickly open Premiere, import project, and highlight added bins
- grab highlighted bins and drag them to the "new folder" icon in project bin; that will create new bin and put all imported bins/clips in to that bin.
- open synced project and copy all clips and paste them in original timeline (where unsorted clips vere).
OPTIONAL: I do replace all clips than with original clips from project bin, just to get stereo audio back. After I replace all clips I delete added bins/clips, because Premiere duplicate all (it will add them every time you re-import clips, instead of knowing it is already imported). So just to keep premiere project file smaller, I remove doubled clips.
If I need to sync just some files I use Premiere CC built in syncer. But PluralEyes does resolve harder to understand clips and Premiere solution is limited by how many clips is capable of syncing. And it does not work with several video/audio tracks, but only two. At least in my case, if I try to sync more than two clips it is grayed out.
Yes, I'm dissapointed by PluralEyes3, because this was my main reason I bought licence, Only to now using version 2.

Can I import projects from the full version of Final Cut Pro X from when I was using the trial version?

So I recently purchased the full edition of Final Cut Pro X, and was wondering why one of the projects I was working on at the time it expired imported back into FCP without asking me, but the other did not. I really need to use this file, but it is in the format of .fcpproject, so I really don't understand why I am not able to use it. It sometimes says when I try to open it that the version of that project was made in an updated version of FCP, or something to that affect, so it cannot be used. I have no idea why it says this, because as far as I know that is un-true. Any ideas?
Edit: I also don't want to delete the trial yet, a little apprehensive, like maybe I need it. But I might if it comes to that. I suppose the time did run out so it is practically worth nothing...

You do not open fcpproject files. You don't double click or anything else. The files have to be in the correct folder structure in the Final Cut Projects folder and the application opens them automatically. Can you post screen shots of the Final Cut Projects folder and its location.

Can't import projects to GB on IPad which are exported by GB on IPad

I have recorded over 110 songs on the IPad with Garageband. Lately GB started to react kind of leggy, which makes sense because GB was taking up the bulk of the memory on the IPad. Now you can export complete GB projects files and delete the original song, however if you do that, the exported versions of the files remain on the IPad. So I did the best clean I could come up with: I exported everything (.band) directories and made a clean install on the IPad of GB. Now here is where the sadness begins. It is not possible to import the xxx.band directories back into GB, so I'm not able to work on the IPad on the songs that I made on the IPad. I feel quite devastated. Anyone with a solution for this? (I run Itunes on my PC so a Mac solution is not a solution for me).

By new version I mean the version that was just released on Wednesday, Version 1.2 (178.87).
I haven't made much music with it, have only been checking it out and since I was not able to share files between the two devices, I haven't really used it. Only tested it as of yet. But since I just got the Apogee iJam, what I've done is import songs that I created on my PC with FL Studio, minus the guitar track, so I can jam along on the iPhone.
If you want to hear some of the music I've done with FL Studio (on the PC and not FL Studio Mobile as that is still in it's infancy and not very useful to me as of yet) here's a link to my Soundcloud page:

Can't import Project to iMovie

I dragged a project out of iMovie to the desktop, but can not figure out how to import it back to the iMovie event or project.
After I dragged it from iMovie, I deleted the project from iMovie but now want to import it back into iMovie.
The desktop icon ends with ".rcproject".
When I open the desktop icon, it shows Project, Proxies, & QuickLook.
When I open iMovie and try to import the project, it shows on the desktop but is dimmed.

When source clip is missing, it usually means you have moved, deleted, or renamed the Event folders which are used by the Project. It could also mean that you have moved, deleted, or renamed some music or photos that were used in the project.
The solution is usually to move them back where they were.
You can think of iMovie as a database. The Project is a text file in hexadecimal that contains the paths to the event clips that are used, as well as in and out points, titles, links to music, links to photos, etc.
The physical clips are kept in the Event.
If you move stuff around in the Finder, the project does not know where to find it.
If you need to move Events or Projects, follow the instructions here.

If any of that rings a bell for you, tell us more about what you did and maybe we can suggest a fix.

Can't import project with same name as previously deleted project

I had a project in Flash Builder that I needed to update; the old version was a Flash Professional project using an FLA, but the new version uses XFL and a different folder structure. I right clicked on the old project in Flash Builder and selected "Delete" then chose the "Do not delete contents" option. I then renamed the project folder and put the new version of the project, with the same folder name, in the same location.
Flash Builder will not let me import the new version of the project. It will take me through the import wizard but when it completes nothing shows up in Flash Builder. Almost seems like there is a "permanently ignore projects with this name forever" flag hidden somewhere, although I'd hope FB wasn't that inflexible. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Thanks.

Eclipse has severe problems with case sensitivity in project names, and will silently crash if the name of a project changes in case. Apparently even if you delete the project and recreate it. So I had to change the capitalization to match the previous version.

I can't import prproj-files to another Project as before

Hey,
since I updated Premiere Pro I can't import projects like the way I want. I made a sequenz with some video, audio and effects: http://puu.sh/gEB8n/831acf7fa4.png
but when I import it to a new project, it will only be shown as one long video and audio track: http://puu.sh/gEBV3/137853ad4d.png
Why did this change and what can I do so that the project is imported as I saved it???

Thank you, that helps me a lot.

Can't import .m4p iTunes song to a diff appl

I bought my first song from iTunes, and it has a .m4p extension. I can't import it into a different application (read iPod rip-off). Songs with .wav, .wma and .mp3 can be imported. Advice?

.m4p means it has Apple DRM (copy protection) on it. You can play it in iTunes or on an iPod.
Similar to how you cannot play a .wma file in iTunes or iPod because it has Windows DRM on it.

I can't import mp3 or caf files into my project

I have FCPX 10.1.4 on a MacBook MacBook Pro 2,3 GHz i7 running Yosemite 10.10.1. FCPX version 10.1.4 I recently updated to this version of FCPX and now when I drag and drop a jingle from my iLife Sound Effects folder to my project or when I import a mp3 I can see the file but I can't see any waveform and I can't hear it. When I preview the music in the inspector I can hear it perfectly. I don't remember FCPX being like this.
When

Correct. That's not how it's supposed to work on the latest version as well. MP3 files should import and be converted to WAV. The jingles should work too.
First suggestion: hold down option and command keys when you launch FCP and delete preferences.

PP CS4 won't capture HDV or import m2t files

MacbookPro, OSX 10.6.4
I haven't done a video project for a couple of months, and everything was working then.
But now, I can't import HDV footage captured by OnLocation (.m2t) ("format not supported"), or capture it directly from my video camera (Sony HVR-A1U). There are also no sequence presets for HDV video.
When I try capturing from the camera, my MacbookPro's webcam shows in the previewer, although the controls in the capture window do control the camera (play, stop, rewind etc.). If I go into the capture Settings, no firewire sources are shown.
I can capture HDV from the camera using iMovie (to Quicktime format). In some respects, that is better, since it does HDV scene detection (unlike PP CS4), saving me a little work. But iMovie won't import m2t either so I'll have to find some other way to convert if for use by PP.
I tried reinstalling PP from disks but to no effect. Before I try full unininstall and reinstall , I thought I'd check here to see if anyone has ideas about what is going on with PP.

>no sequence presets for HDV
I don't know if this applys to Mac or not, but I have seen messages saying that PPro will, for some unknown reason, sometimes revert to demo status... which only supports SD video, and nothing that requires any flavor of MPEG

How can I import HDV-Files from a CF-Card to Final cut Pro 5.1.4

How can I import HDV-Files from a CF-Card (recorded with the Sony HVR Z 7E) to Final cut Pro Version 5.1.4 – is this possible at all?
I managed to import the files to Premiere, but it was just a test. I am working at a very huge documentary project with Final cut Pro Version 5.1.4 thats why I would prefere not to change the program or the version.
Simply exporting from Premiere back to final cut is also very complicated.
Thanks for any ideas.

First, copy the card to a hard drive connected to your fcp workstation. I always back up all card based media at least 2 or three times. All hard drive will eventually fail. It's a question of when, not if.
I'm not familiar with this particular camera, but examine the contents of the copied files and see if you can find any .mov files. You can try importing these directly into fcp.
If you don't, you can try something like clipwrap
http://www.divergentmedia.com/clipwrap
or
Magic Bullet Grinder
http://www.redgiantsoftware.com/
But, I'd really advise upgrading to at least fcp6 or ideally fcp7 if you can find a copy. HDV is a problematic format. Although you can certainly work with it and it's a fcp approved format, converting your media to prores would make your life much easier.

I can only import HDV with Apple Intermediate Codec!!!!

Hello,
I want to get to the bottom of this. I have HDV film shot on a DV tape. I cannot import this HDV footage, it appears to be importing, but the moment I hit "escape" to stop capture, I realize nothing was actually importing. I usually end up with a second of captured footage, ironically, it's of the second that I stopped capture on. So I capture my last second.
Of course, if I change my setting to Apple Intermediate Codec, it works fine.
I'm using Final Cut Pro 5 on a G5 that hasn't been online in a while. Maybe I just need some 'updates?"
Or is this a Final Cut Pro 5 issue since it came out when HDV was relatively new on the scene?
Should I upgrade to Final Cut Pro 6, cut that make importing HDV easier for me?
This footage I don't mind converting to Intermediate Codec, but in the future I'd like to not have to do this.
Anyone know what causes this?
Thanks!

You should be able to do it fine in 5.0 as well as 5.1.
I have been capturing HDV since August of 2006, long before FCP 6. Make sure you use a camera that is supported, for HDV is not a standard the way DV is. It is MPEG 2 out of the box. So when you capture you are in for a bit of a ride editing HDV on FCP 5. It can be done, but you are better to take a page from Shane's book and capture to DVCPro HD instead. It takes up much more space, but you will have no headache editing and outputting later.
Hope this helps.

Can't import HDV unless I set it for Apple Intermediate Codec

I cannot import my HDV video for the life of me. I see it on the screen, I hit capture "clip," and it appears to be capturing fine, but when I'm done, the clips in the browser show the red line crossing through them and say "offline" when I try to play them.
And when I hit "Capture Now," I don't get anything at all.
Actually, I do get a clip that is approximately 1 second long that captures the last second of my video. The literal last second. So I capture one second that I'm actually trying to stop the video on.
So I try Apple Intermediate Codec. It works PERFECT now!
Only thing is, I would like to use HDV instead, because isn't it better quality?
Plus it's just bugging me that I can't understand why I can't import on HDV settings. Why would it not capture a single frame except for the last second or two?
I guessing it's timecode related, but the timecode seems to be continuous. Scenes do change where the camera was turned off and on, but the timecode is continuous.
Thanks everyone for listening.

I am using Final Cut Pro 5.
I am probably using the latest version of Quicktime.
Thanks for any advice!!!!
