CS3 or CS4 -Import/Edit HD video from memory card Canon Vixia HFS100

Can someone 'jumpstart' or direct me to good tutorial(s) for the following:
Video recording with Canon Vixia HFS 100 camera is full HD 1080, 60i frame rate, AVCHD specs, onto a SDHC card.
I have CS3, getting ready to install upgrade to CS4.  Most project files created are for NSTC standard TV broadcast.
Answer to specific questions appreciated as well as additional information or resources.
What preset is best to use for project files?
Do you have to install the Pixela imagemixer to recognize for video import from the memory card?

Unfortunately, you have posted into the Premiere forum. This is an older series of programs, prior to the introduction of the Premiere Pro line, with PrPro 1.0.
Now, for AVCHD material, CS4.1 offers full native support for this format with most of its variations. One DOES need a beefy computer to process this footage, as it is very heavily CPU-dependent.
I'll bet that Curt, or Jeff, will move your post to the PrPro sub-forum, so look for it there. You will get many more responses in that forum.
Good luck,
Hunt

  • Help retrieving my video from Memory card

    Hello, there!
    I need your help from some good professionals here,
    I got stock in past with this product for many different reasons,
    I have CS2 running under Windows XP Profesional,
    I just bought a SONY HD Camcorder Comsumer version,
    uses stick Memory to record video
    My primere Pro CS2 Has HD Presets for wide screen mode, that's ok
    the question I have is:
    My sony Camcorder came with its software to capture the video from camcorder " I guess " or maybe to edit video,
    but, looking at the Memory card from Windows, I can see the files in the card.
    question is:
    what's the best way to get the video HD from my Camcorder?
    to play back the video from my camcorder and capture it in Premiere Pro CS2 using HD Presets?
    or
    Can I import the video files from the memory card and import them into Premiere pro CS2 using HD Presets?
    or
    how would you do this?
    what software version is the best to work with video files from this Memory card?
    Please, explain
    I've been out dated
    from this video Package
    Thanks
    Freddy

    Unfortunately Premiere Pro 2 does not support video from from a memory card.
    You need to upgrade.

  • Recover video from Memory Card in a N73 ME

    How can I recover a video from my memory card
    I have deleted from N73
    My Personal Blog
    http://www.megablogsite.com

    If you haven't used the memory card at all it may be recoverable.
    Seach for undelete or similar tools for Windows, then connect the memory card to windows and use the software to try to recover.
    It may not be possible though. And sometimes even if you recover it it may be corrupted, e.g. some bits will be missing making the file unplayable.

  • Import from memory based Canon Vixia HF10

    Hi all...been using my Canon HD camera with iMovie with relatively few problems.
    What strikes me as odd is when I click "Import from Camera" it never recognizes the camera. Sometimes it imports, sometimes it doesn't or at least doesn't notify me it is importing. Anyone know anything else about this?

    Im curious, how did you fix this issue? Previously iMovie 08 found my HF100 and I could import my clips, but now it just wont recognize the camera. Camera is on, powered, and everything is correct. I got a disk on my desktop named NO NAME which contains all the clips, but iMovie does not recognize.

  • Importing & Editing iPhone Video, but end result horrible Quality?? Why?

      I imported a few videos from my Iphone to edit in PE7. After editing and rendering, the resulting video looks like crap compared to original. I did a test run of a short clip with no editing whatsoever and rendered as a MPEG2 to upload to a webpage and it still looked horrible compared to the original. The iPhone files are Quicktime .MOV video files. Ive had no other problems before with other sources and just wondering what Im missing. Ive tried googling and cant find any help. Thanks.

    There is no project preset for 1080p24 in Premiere Elements 7. It is not until Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 that we do find the opportunity.
    NTSC
    DSLR
    1080p
    DSLR 1080p24
    So, what to do with a 1080p24 (Stereo audio) and Premiere Elements 7 and end up with a 1080p24 export to file saved to the computer hard drive.
    (1) Import with the project preset of
    NTSC
    AVCHD Full HD 1080i30
    The prime objective of the project preset is to direct the program to set up the 1920 x 1080 space in the Edit area monitor. This project preset will serve that purpose until you want to do frame by frame by frame editing which you are unlikely to be involved in.
    (2) When it comes to export the 1080p24 Timeline content
    Share
    Personal Computer
    MPEG
    with Presets = HD 720p
    then under the Advanced Button/Video Tab, customize the Export Settings to look exactly like what you see in the screenshot below: If the screenshot does not present clear enough, please click on it to bring up a clearer view.
    Please check out my blog post on Premiere Elements 24p features.

    Now with regard to what you seem actually to have....
    1. Both cell phones (iPhone 5 and 5S) are probably giving you 1080p with a variable frame rate up to 30 frames per second. Depends often on the lighting during video recording with the device.
    a. If you are having problems with this video, then take it into HandBrake before importing it into Premiere Elements 7 in order to change the variable frame rate to a constant one. The MediaInfo video audio properties readout program will give you the minimum, mid range, and maximum frame rate used in recording the video. Go with the mid range reading.
    http://handbrake.fr/
    MediaInfo | Free software downloads at SourceForge.net
    Even the latest Premiere Elements versions can have problems with variable frame rates of cell phones and those other devices that work with a variable frame rate.
    b. Let us assume that you have a 1080p with the mid range 24 progressive frames per second used for these cell phone recordings.
    Import the 1080p24 with the constant frame rate into Premiere Elements 7 with the project preset cited in example above.
    c. Then use the export route that I described in the example above.
    If your iPhone videos have frame rates other than 24 progressive frames per second, we can discuss them individually.
    Do any of your source videos for these project need rotation. Other topic for discussion. For now, the above principles should apply to your video. Handling of portrait oriented video in a landscape oriented video is other topic for discussion. But, let us see how you work through the above.
    Thanks.

    How do I import a wmv video from my PC to my Iphone 5S via Itunes?

    iTunes and the iPhone do not support WMV files. You will first have to convert the video to an MPEG4 or H.264 format video.

    How can i import songs or videos from my iPod to my computer?
    iTune doesn't seem to be able to get this done...

    You can't sync your music back from an iPod to iTunes, the transfer of music is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the files from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. They will all transfer songs but if I recall, only iPodCopy also does videos.

  • How to import photos and videos from Android device?

    Hello
    I just bought Photoshop Elements 11 recently and I'm trying to import photos and videos from my phone, Samsung Galaxy SIII, but having a little trouble.
    When I go to "Import from Camera or Card Reader" option and choose my phone from the "Get photos from" drop down menu in "Source" section the "Photo downloader" finds
    every single photo and/or video stored on the device and it's memory card but I'm trying to import only photos and/or videos I've shot my self with the phone, witch is kept
    in an folder named DCIM, but I simply can't figure out how to so my question is:
    How do I import photos and/or videos from my Android device?

    Try clicking Advanced button (bottom left) in the downloader dialog. You should then be able to select and deselect thumbnails and import only the ones you give the checkmark.

  • I can't import and view videos from a camera.

    I can't import and view videos from a camera.  Even if I open the file and copy the .avi files onto the hard drive.  I have tried iMovie, Quicktime, and Flip player.  Flip player will open it but I only get the audio,  Quicktime freezes, and iPhoto tries to automatically import only to then error saying the files are not compatible.

    Hello Hese,
    try the following:
    1. delete preferences (com.apple.iMovie.plist) and empty the trash
    2. repair disc permissions with Disc Utility and reboot your mac
    3. use Diskwarrior or MacJanitor for disc clean-up
    4. disconnect any other firewire devices
    5. take off any non-system desktop pictures
    If nothing else helps, you might want to consider resetting your Firewire port(s)

  • HT204053 sir; i can't import song and videos from pc to my iphone pls help me

    sir; i can't import song and videos from pc to my iphone pls help me

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple - if you would like help then you will need to provide more information than 'can't import' e.g. how are trying to sync content and what happens when you do it ?
    You have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer, and your phone appears in it when it's connected to your computer ? If not then see if this troubleshooting page helps : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    You should be able to sync music and films/TV programmes by selecting your phone on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (you can enable the sidebar via control-S on a PC) and then using the tabs on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select and sync your content
    Is that how you are trying to do it and it's not working ?
    If you haven't synced your phone to that computer before then you may also find this page useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

    Prior to put them to iTunes, you have to convert the video in compatible format.
    Best for that is Handbrake --> http://handbrake.fr/

    No you won't, iMovie 6 will continue to work, and having two or more versions of iMovie should not be a problem.
