Debug Event when importing HDV footage

In short:
When I try to import HDV footage into a project (.mpeg format),
I receive the following message:
Premiere Pro Debug Event
premiere pro has encountered an error.
[..\..\src\time.cpp-105]
Subsequently premiere fails to import the files...
I first noticed this problem last week, so I thought it might
be related to a product update. But even when uninstalling Premiere
Pro and re-installing it (thus being version 3.0) the problem
still exists. Updating to 3.2 doesn't solve the issue either.
Does anyone recognize this issue?
regards,
Reinout van Schie

Perhaps

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 crashing when importing HDV Video

    For some reason I keep getting crashes when importing HDV (720p60) video into the timeline of Adobe Premiere Pro CS6.  This has happened on two different machines, with similar specs.
    Per the suggested guidelines, here are the specifics:
    Version of Premiere Pro: CS6, Version 6.0.5 (001 (MC:264587))
    All updates have been installed.
    Operating System: Mac OS X 10.8.5.
    Source footage: HDV 720p60 video in .MOV container.
    Full text of error message: "Sorry, a serious error has occured that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down.  We will attempt to save your current project."
    Link to full crash report: http://goo.gl/Gn8Bzn
    Crash occurs when trying to import HDV .MOV file.
    This is a consistent problem when importing .MOV files of this type.
    Complete Adobe Creative Suite is installed.  Also using Episode Pro encoding software from Telestream to prepare HDV video.  No other external video hardware or codecs installed.
    Yes, I am using the Mecury Playback Engine GPU acceleration.
    Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me figure this one out.

  • Importing HDV footage - seems you don't want to use Premiere (?)

    Hi everyone, and good morning.
    Well, after many great posts, and lots of help here, I think I realize something....
    If you own a camcorder that does HDV footage ( like my Canon H20 ), you must use something other than Premiere to import your original footage from the camcorder, if you wish to do any type of editing in Premiere later on.
    If I understand what you have all told me that is.
    For clarfication, last week, I imported my first HDV tape using Premiere, and the resulting file was a very high quality .mpeg file, however, it was not editable in Premiere at all. The audio and video were totally out of sync.
    So, I then re-captured the original video from the camera into Pinnacle Studio 11, and this resulted in 2 files, a video and audio file. ( .wav and a .m2v file ). These files import into Premiere very well, and the audio and video is perfectly in sync from beginning to end.
    With all this said, is there any point at all in keeping the original .mpeg file that I originally captured from the camcorder into Premiere ???
    At this point, I don't see any advantage to this, but thought I would ask. I've read numerous posts that .mpeg is just not great for editing, etc,etc, so perhaps I should just delete this file, and keep going the route I'm now using ( capturing the original camcorder footage with Pinnacle Studio 11 ) (?? )
    I also wonder, if one only owns Premiere, then what on earth do you do, if you have an HDV camcorder ? ( perhaps all of you that own one of these camcorders, capture the video footage from the camcorder, in a program other than Premiere ? )
    Thanks for any info you may wish to give,
    Dave.

    I am not so sure the problem is always restricted to CS3 captured footage. I convert from AVCHD to HDV (usually using Elecard, or Procoder etc) and find that if I stitch the output into a longish single HDV file then although that hdv file plays ok in a player, and is in sync - it loses sync when imported into PP CS3 - but is OK in other NLEs (well Vegas) Seems to me that CS3 cannot hold sync if (some) hdv clips are simply longish. Bad bug!- although seems it's being worked on according to similar threads

  • Importing HDV footage created in Episode Pro

    Episode Pro (latest update) creates HDV files that i can't import in Fina Cut 6 (latest update).
    It happenend since updated Itunes to version 10. It seems to have stopped working at this moment
    now when importing footage in FCP i get File error: unknown file type. It did not happen before
    Any idea?

    Open it in Quicktime and hit command-I and the codec and all other vital stats will be given in that window.
    Likely the FCP file used a ProRes codec, and those will not open in FCE. FCE uses only the Apple Intermediate Codec for HDV material.

  • Adobe Media Encoder Debug Event (when exporting audio)

    I do alot of vj'ing... I have a good pipeline for exporting short film clips, optimized for the vj software I use.
    I export photojpg at 75 quality, at 640x480, with no audio.
    However, i'm now trying to export some of the same clips, but with the audio intact.
    No matter what audio format and bitrate setting I choose, however, media encoder refuses to export the audio.
    I've tried it with a number source videos, with various combinations of source video/audio codec combinations, and I continue to get the same error:
    Adobe Media Encoder Debug Event
    [..\..\Src\Win\WinFile.cpp-754]
    When I unclick audio, each clip exports fine, as normal.
    What gives?
    -Matt Daly

    I'll tryed now everything. If I choose update it tells everything is up to date. If tryed to run patch from: "http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/mediaencoder/win/7.x/AdobeMediaEncoderTrial_64-7.0.1-m ul-AdobeUpdate.zip", it runs ok but nothing has updated when I start Media Encoder again.

  • Importing HDV Footage: System Hang After Indexing Finished

    Running Premiere CS6 with updates.
    Generally solid application, but the first time I crashed it this year, was during import of HDV footage. After the footage indexes, and the thumbnail pic changes from 'media pending' to the actual footage frame, the mouse pointer freezes. The keyboard is frozen too. Can't even bring up the Task Manager in Windows 7 64. Is HDV even supported anymore? Maybe it's an invalid format? The file plays fine in VLC, so I don't think it's corrupted. But egads, I've never seen an app hang Windows 7 before!

    I've confirmed that the hang does not happen with Canon HV20 footage, only Sony HVR-V1U footage. Any footage shot by that camera will hang not only Premiere, but the entire OS. I have to power down the machine to regain control.
    What's so different about Sony's implementation of HDV that it is incompatible with Premiere?

  • How to prevent iPhoto to make an automatic event when importing from Photo stream

    Hi everyone,
    My question is related to the Photo stream functionality in iPhoto.
    Is possible to prevent iPhoto from making an automatic event when I import a photo from Photo stream. It is really annoying because of the fact that I use "events" for keeping my important photo's together (as many of you do I asume). Ofcourse after importing I can just delete it from my event section but is there a way to prevent it?
    Thanks.

    No. Photostream creates an Event for each month.
    iPhoto has many other tools for managing and categorising your Photos.
    I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums extensively. I title the pics broadly.
    I keyword on a
    Who
    What
    Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
    Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 40k library in a couple of seconds.
    So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a  typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
    File -> New Smart Album
    set it to 'All"
    title contains Seattle
    keyword is mountain
    keyword is snow
    rating is 5 stars
    Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
    New Smart Album
    Keyword is John
    Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
    Want only the best pics?
    add Rating is greater than 4 stars
    The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John  to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
    In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.

  • Can an old PowerBook G4 import HDV Footage?

    I have a PowerBook G4 1.5 Ghz, running Leopard.
    I want to install Final Cut Express 4, in order to import HDV video.
    Do you think I can do this with my old computer, or do I need a new and faster one?
    I looked at the "system requirements", they say the software needs at least a G4 processor running at 1.25 Ghz, then it should be all right. But they don't say anything about HDV and G4 processors.
    I'm asking because I want to be sure, don't want to buy the program and then find out I can't use it...
    Thank you

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    I do HDV on an iMac G4 1 gig of RAM, but the capturing process is longer than with my G5. The rendering time for HDV is longer than regular DV and on a G4 is very long, but can be completed. 1 gig of RAM is short for HDV as 2 gig is recommended.
    A dedicated, 7200 rpm, hard drive is recommended to do HDV and maintain a high rate transfert speed. I suspect that the internal one in your book cannot keep the pace. Think about an external.

  • New Warning Signal w/ importing HDV footage

    macbook pro
    FCP 6
    Sony HDR
    I am importing footage from a HDV source into FCP, something I've done numerous times. When I go to do a batch capture, it only imports one or two clips, and then I get a message saying that the capture is being aborted, and that I need to check to see if the receiver is playing and that the data has stopped importing. After I hit continue, it starts to import again no problem. The footage isn't negatively affected (as far as I can tell). This is more annoying than anything, and I have never had this problem before.
    I have used 2 different cameras, but the problem still persists. I don't understand this. If there were a problem, I wouldn't be able to capture anything.
    Any thoughts? Thanks.
    John

    Hi Shane, thanks for pointing out this article and helping me get the semantics correctly. I have the HV10 and have no difficulty using the HDV, 29.97, HDV - 1080i60 FireWire Basic to digitize, as mentioned in the article. Also, it is a tricky bunch of cameras and it took a while to get all the settings OUT on the camera as well as in FCP and be able to digitize.
    Jared, I will check after the holiday to see what other settings I may have had to use...do check your camera to see if you shot 24fps, though that would not cause this issue, it sounds like camera and fcp settings are the problem.

  • "File Not Supported" Message when importing AVCHD footage into Premiere on Mac

    Hi,
    What I am using:
    Camera: Sony FS100
    Media Codec: AVCHD
    Computer: iMac running OSX 10.8.2
    Premiere CS6
    I have a quirky issue I have been trying to figure out.  I just bought a Sony FS100 camera which records footage in the AVCHD format.  When I import the "private" folder the camera creates into Premiere, it brings the footage in but always give me this error message: "File format not supported" along with a list of every clip on the card.  The thing is, despite the warning, Premiere brings in each clip fine into browser window.  I can preview the clips, edit them and export them out of the timeline with no problems that I have seen.  Additionally, if I go back to the "File" dropdown and select "Import Recent File", I can select any of the the files individually again and NOT get the error message when I bring in the clips.  I have imported from the Private folder amd the AVCHD quicktime inside the Private folder and, when I do, I get the above mentioned error.  But if I import any of the .mts folders that Premiere can see inside the AVCHD folder (each .mts folder seems to represent each indvidual clip), they come in perfect without the error message.  Additionally, if I locate the folder through the media browser, it brings the clips in without the error message.  I can then drag these clips into the Project window like I have been trying to do eith the "import" function.  So should I not be using the "Import" function with these files?  I want to because that is what I did with FCP?  Any help would be much appreciated!

    The PRIVATE folder contains far more than just the media.  Those additional files are what's generated the message.
    The proper method here is to use the Media Browser for importing.

  • Missing events when importing

    I have a corrupted iPhoto library so I exported all 64,000 photos to a folder on the desktop.  I then created a new iPhoto library and imported them all back in.  When done, they are all in one event - not split by day correctly.  I checked preference settings and they are correct.
    I've deleted the .plist file as well and then started again (new library, import) but still only shows one event for all 64,000 photos.
    Any ideas?

    Correct - exporting and reirting loses a lot including organization
    You should have repaired your corrupted library - restore a backup of it and Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair permissions and if necessary rebuild your database
    Shot of that your remaining option its select the big event and use the autosplie selected event command

  • FCP7 - Computer shut down after 5 minutes of importing HDV footage

    Hello,
    I've searched around forums for a couple hours now looking for people with similar problems as mine.
    I've taken about 10 minutes of 1080i, 24p, footage on my Canon HV40 camera. I'm capturing the footage in HDV-Apple ProRes 422 1080p24 using my own main harddrive (with the OS installed on it) as my scratch disk. After about 5 minutes of capturing, my computer just shuts off. No error, no pin wheel spinning.. just complete shut down. I turn it back on, try it again, same thing... right around 5 minutes it crashes again.
    I've tried deleting Perian out of my quicktime library folder, using software update, deleting quicktime and reinstalling the newest version... I'm about to test it again after having trashed my Final Cut Pro settings. I've read that having my scratch disk be the same as my OS main disk could be the problem... which is really unfortunate because I have a lot of room on my main disk set aside for this and I didn't really want to have to buy an external hard drive.
    Anyway... long post, but I'm just trying to describe the whole situation here. See my specs in my profile please. Can anyone help me?
    Thank you!

    God I hate to see someone throwing money at a project without a definante answer, but I would venture to say your processor and ram are really somewhat of the problem. You will find in other threads here, people with better processors and more than twice the RAM you have are still having problems when dealing with HDV. Sure HDV is made affordable to film, but it would seem that you still need good hardware to back that camera if you are looking to edit.
    Also, for future reference, I have read by tons of indie filmakers that while its ok to have 1 TB drivers, it is somewhat better to run 2 500 GB drives so you can backup your work in a couple of different places. I don't know if you are using tape or hard drive/memory cards but if you are moving towards a NLE workflow (tapeless) more hardrives are better than large hard drives for storage safety.
    I know for positive, many editors and film makers are begging for a software for logging and capturing that improves naming of files, and also automatically backs up the footage in two different places so the cards or hard drive for the camera can be formatted and reused.

  • No dialogue box when importing hdv into fcp, normal?

    I'm using a Canon Vixia HV40. When I import into FCP no dialogue box appears, just a small box that lets me name the file and import. I am choosing log and capture.
    It will then import but without showing any progress and I have to press the quit button first to view the clips.Is this normal for HDV importing? I'm new to HD.

    Can I use a capture card with an iMac?
    No...sorry.
    Do you happen to know what setting to use when I capture from native 24p. Which Pro Res setting do I use?
    I don't. The one time I did capture ProRes in the manner you are, the tape was 1080i60, so it was pretty standard. Now..."native" 24p...you can't get that on tape. Impossible. NATIVE means that it was recorded at 24fps (running at 23.98). Tapes don't do that. They run at 30fps (29.97). So how the HV40 does it records 24fps onto a 30fps tape, and you need to remove that pulldown when you capture.
    HOW? No clue. I don't work with that format. Even if you captured at 29.97, you cannot remove pulldown after the fact with HDV...the GOP format prevents it. You first need to capture as ProRes, THEN remove it...or....
    I see an HDV 1080p24 Firewire Basic option, and an HDV-Apple ProRes 422 1080p24 option. What do those get you? Oh, what version of FCP?

  • Issues importing HDV footage

    I have a canon HV20 and it seems like FCP6 has been super picky on HDV imports.
    The footage I am trying to import was on new tapes and there were no stops in the tape.
    Everytime I go to import them there is always a part or two that gets splitup and drops a few seconds.
    So to fix this I have to go back and try in reimport the lost area. I am using Firewire basic and standard HDV import settings. This is getting very frustrating I never had so many issues with importing.
    Thanks in advance!

    I've confirmed that the hang does not happen with Canon HV20 footage, only Sony HVR-V1U footage. Any footage shot by that camera will hang not only Premiere, but the entire OS. I have to power down the machine to regain control.
    What's so different about Sony's implementation of HDV that it is incompatible with Premiere?

  • File Error when importing stock footage file

    I just ordered a quicktime stock footage clip and when I try to import it I get this message.
    ! File Error: 1 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown.
    I imported 3 other files from the same place, same size, etc., fine, but then this came up. Any info would be so helpful because this is for a project due tomorrow.

    Click once on the clip. Now hit APPLE-I to GET INFO (also in FILE menu). This will tell you a lot of things, including what the codec of the clip is, and, at the bottom, what the PRIVELAGES are. Read/write, read only...stuff like that.
    Does the clip open in QUicktime?
