How to import 60p footage

How can I import 60p footage that I have already shot not knowing that FCP X would import directly. I also have Imovie 11. If FCPX OR iMovie wont do it directly, any suggestions on Mac friendly program that would convert, I like free programs. Thanks for your help guys.

Well, use this Mac Video Converter (http://www.myhdsoft.com/top-rated-mac-hd-video-converter-os-x-lion-reviews/), supports any type HD videos like AVCHD, H.264 MTS, DSLR etc

  • How to import 1080i60 footage in FCE?

    This is the continuation of a former question where I was wondering about the crappy results of exporting a sequence from FCE. Turns out that the problem occurs much earlier, during import.
    So here it goes: I have a Sony CV550V camcorder recording in 1080i60 AVCHD. I use FCE Log and Transfer to import the footage. At this early stage ALREADY, I can see the fields offset with respect to one another in the Log and Transfer preview window. If I look at the footage by connecting my camcorder to my HD TV, I see no such artifact.
    I looked at the FCE manual, tried all options of the Log and Transfer window (ZERO as far as I can see), but it does not seem that I have any choice on how FCE imports 1080i60 AVCHD footage. Am I doomed? I have heard from users of Sony Vegas software for instance, and they do not have such artifacts...
    Thanks for your advice.

    "Completely wrong" is a bit harsh, but indeed the whole issue is addressed in threadID=2497894 "How to export/convert FCE movies into AVCHD format?"

  • How to import video footage shot at 24fps

    I did a shoot for a student project a couple of days ago using a Panasonic DVX100. The camera operator set the speed for 24fps, saying it would look more like film, and used anamorphic sqeeze. When I import the footage, though, the person's movement is jumpy, and the audio doesn't seem to match completely. I used DV-NTSC 32KHZ Anamorphic Basic for the capture.
    Can anyone make a suggestion for the correct settings for import?

    More likely the audio should be 48K, and you don't use FireWire Basic with this camera. Anamorphic is correct.

  • How to import p2 footage

    is there anyway to import p2 footage into elements 11?

    lilmanskBer
    Is your P2 footage essentally MXF files? If so, no version of Premiere Elements supports MXF.
    If this is the case, then you would have to convert the MXF into another format which would be compatible with Premiere Elements 11 or
    whichever version you want to use.
    If I have mistargeted your question, please give more details.
    Thank you.

  • How to import mpeg2 footage to imovie08?

    Get very excited when I get my new macbook, installed imovie 08 and try to create my first movie on the mac, but get stuck in the first step trying to import my HDV video capture clip (1080i in mpeg2 format). I previously captured all my video on xp machine using hdvsplit which generates many transport streams *.m2t files, then I used streamclip to convert to program streams *.mpg. These mpgs can be opend to apps like premiere elements or pinnacle studio without any problem, but when I try to import them in imovie 8, the import window simply grays out the mpg files and not let me select them. Interesting enough, I can open and view the mpg footage using quicktime, so the video self is good, just imovie cannot take it.
    I checked all these mpg files using gspot and they report the format as MPEG-2 Program stream (1 vid, 1 aud). I further demuxed it into m2v video only, still imovie cannot let me select those m2v files. I know I can prob convert all my mpegs to quicktime mov files using streamclip, but it will take significant disk space (I have about 300GB mpeg2 HDV source)
    for example, the following are what MPEGStreamclip show stream info tells me about my mpeg
    Stream: owen-200608_19-06_5711.mpg
    Path: /test/video/owen-200608_19-06_5711.mpg
    Type: MPEG program stream
    Duration: 0:00:21
    Data Size: 65.69 MB
    Bit Rate: 25.47 Mbps
    Video Tracks:
    224 MPEG-2, 1440 × 1080, 16:9, 29.97 fps, 8.00 Mbps, upper field first
    Audio Tracks:
    192 MP2 stereo, 48 kHz, 384 kbps
    Stream Files:
    owen-200608_19-06_5711.mpg (65.69 MB)
    final question.. also will final cut express import these mpeg2 movie footages?

    I have personally used this trick, and worked flawlessly!!!
    iM08 is prepared to import MPEG 2 "ONLY" directly from a connected camera. However, somebody, and I am not sure who, "Tricked" iM08 into believing that the MPEG2 files he had were inside the camera.
    You will have to create a folder at root level in an external drive, or an flash USB drive named: mp_root, and inside this, a folder named 101PNV01.
    I got to paste what I wrote in another thread:
    With a USB flash memory drive, or an external hard drive, create on it a folder named MP_ROOT, inside it create a folder named 101PNV01, now put your mpg-2 files in this folder. Have iMovie open; after creating these files and putting the mpeg2's on it, disconnect the drive from your computer, now, when you re-connect, is like connecting a camera, and with iMovie open already, it will tell you that you have connected a camera etc, etc, now import into iMovie 08.
    I use this to import mpeg 2's.
    Remember to create this at the root level, at the very highest level in your external hard drive or USB. I do not use a USB stick because my files are very large, I use a external hard drive, so if one does not work for you, try the other one, if you have both.
    This is one of the threads were I read this advise:

  • Sony CX760-How to import 60p clips

    I just purchased a Sony CX760.  I can import all video SD and HD video (frame rate of 60i or 24p), however iMovie does not allow me to import video at the 60p frame rate.  Any suggestions?

    Hi, I am also a Sony CX760V user. The Camcorder records 1920 x 1080 Full HD 60p/24p video as well as CX700VE.
    I like editing the recordings with FCP to share with my family. And I once met the similar trouble. I often couldn't see the clips when I import CX760V AVCHD .mts or m2ts files to FCP.
    So I go to goole and found an easy way to help me. Here I share it with you. It can give you a hint. Below is the link.

  • How to import from desktop (file) avchd in FCE4.0.1

    I copied from a camera onto my macbook avchd footage for later use in FCE4.
    I used the importcommand log and transfer.
    I have three maps; DCIM (empty), MISC (AUTPRINT.MRK) and PRIVATE with a lot of files.
    I tried all the maps (or files in it) to drag into L&transfer but that does not work.
    I am sure I am doing something wrong. How to import avchd footage in FCE?
    Thanks!
    Bruce.

    Read the section in the manual on log and transfer. Once again you can NOT drag and drop to the log and transfer window.
    If the application is crashing you have more serious problems.
    Do NOT go inside the folder structure of the SD card. Select the top level of the folder structure. If that crashes the application, you should take your computer to an Apple service technician.
    I'm assuming the the operating system was correctly installed, and the application was correctly installed from the disc in the Applications folder.

  • Import Video Footage

    I got myself a new HD video camera for Christmas but have been unable to figure out how to import the footage onto my Mac. When I plug it in it recognizes it as three external storage devices. I've been able to copy over the video files to my Mac but they have been in the .avi format. I've attempted to convert these files but every time they come out laggy or with the audio out of sync. Please help.

    Please tell us the exact model of your camera,
    the exact model of your computer,
    which version MacOSX you're using,
    what video software and which version you're using, and
    what cable you're using to connect the camera to the computer.
    Then we can begin.

  • How does 1080/60p work on a NTSC TV?

    If some of the new HDTVs are only 720P 1080i, how does 1080/60p footage get played back on it? I am trying to find a videocamera that shoots 1080/60p for some high speed sports, but I don't know how it will even work on an interlaced TV.

    Huh? HDTVs are NOT NTSC. NTSC is standard definition only. They are ATSC (Advanced Television Systems Comitte) sets but may have a built-in NTSC tuner. The output of the NTSC tuner (if it has one) is up-ressed to fill the area based on the display choices in the menu. LCDs and plasma sets will alway stretch an SD image. Some models do it rather well ... others really suck at it.

  • How do I capture tape-based media to my external hard drive?  There is only one firewire 800 port on the back of my I mac.  The manual says to import tape footage directly into fcpx, but then I lose my external hard drive.   thanks for your help.

    In FCP X How do I capture tape-based media (hdv clips)- which I want to import-to my external hard drive?  There is only one firewire 800 port on the back of my I mac.  The FCPX manual says to import tape footage directly into final cut, which works, but then I lose  my external hard drive    Do I  have to import it into an event, then copy it over to an external hard drive?  On Larry Jordan's tutorial, he has 3 external hard drives that show up on his monitor WHILE he imports his tape based media.  How is that done?  I can only get either the camera to appear OR my external hard drive.   thanks for your help.

    Thanks for your response, but that doesn't solve the problem.  Yes, the LaCie hard drive has 2 firewire ports-
    I have always done what you suggest (works fine in FCP7), but in FCPX when I do that the camcorder icon
    does not appear.  It only shows up when I DIRECTLY import the footage via firewire.  ????

  • Anyone figured out how to import P2 720p footage to FCPX?

    Hello Final Cut Pro X Discussers.
    Problem: Panasonic P2 720 footage of any kind cannot be imported in to FCPX.
    To my knowledge, there has been a shockingly disregarded problem in FCPX where you can not import and transcode 720 resolution video from Panasonic P2 cards. MXF files to be exact.
    How could Apple/Final Cut Pro team overlook this for so many versions now? What's odd is we can import 1080 footage off the same P2 cards fine, but for some reason 720, at any frame rate, creates an error and cannot be transcoded.
    Has anyone found a solution to this issue?
    Thanks for your tips and advice FCP community.

    @BenB - What format are you shooting in with P2? I have an HVX200, and when I shoot in 1080 at any frame rate, I also DO NOT have problems importing directly from camera or otherwise. However, whenever I shoot footage in 720p at ANY frame rate, I DO have problems importing.
    The camera pops up in the "Import from Camera" window, I can see the clips, I can even play them, and after I select all or individual clips and hit "Import", FCPX tries importing them for a little bit and after a couple minutes an error window pops up saying there was a problem importing clip.
    This happens whether I import directly from the camera, or from an archive that I copy to my local machine.
    What's most surprising to me about this dilemma is the complete lack of documentation or response on the internet altogether. I see no official comment on the matter from Apple, nor Panasonic. Nor do I see reasonable alternative solutions, other than "Use FCP7 to Log&Transfer your P2", or buy one of the crappy overpriced third-party scam softwares out there.

  • Is Panasonic developing a plugin for FCP X that allows you to import Panasonic HDC-TM700 1080/60p footage straight into it without transcoding?

    I've been hearing from a few people on these Support Communities that Panasonic is apparently said to be have been developing some kind of plugin that will let FCP X users import 1080/60p footage from the TM700 straight into the editor, without need for use of third-party software such as Popcorn to transcode the footage into .MOV files. They were also apparently going to release this plugin this summer. Anyone know of some kind of link to some more information about it, or some confirmation that it actually is happening? I really would like to know, as I'm big into the 60p setting on the TM700, and my current workflow has me waiting about 3 or 4 hours each time I go to import any footage. Please let me know!

    Hey guys!
    I just downloaded Clipwrap to import my 60p footage into FCPX. I downloaded the demo and realize it will only convert up to a 1min file.
    When I re-wrap and nativate to my re-wrapped file, I can see (and hear) that it preserves my 5.1. When I play it back, the audio stops about half way (odd). When I import it into FCPX, there is no audio at all. Will FCPX not edit AC-3?
    If I keep the LPCM boxed checked on Clipwrap, I get a mono audio file.
    Can someone step out a workflow for me that gets me re-wrapping in Clipwrap, retaining 5.1 and editing in FCPX?
    Thanks for any help!

  • P2 to HD and now what?  How do I import the footage?

    Hello all. Well, once again, Final Cut 6 is making me feel rather... ignorant.
    I shot 1 8 gig P2 cards worth of video with audio.
    I created a directory on my laptop, connected the HVX to the MacBookPro via firewire, then, transferred the Contents directory (and all of the directories inside) to the harddrive.
    Now, I want to look at and use the footage... but I haven't been able to discover how to import the data into Final Cut.
    Can anyone point out where in the manual this specific workflow is covered or some tips of working this way? Also, let's say I had 2 P2 cards and some of the recording flowed over to the second card... how do you re-connect the footage if you must drag the data to a computer's harddrive while in the field?
    Thanks in advance!
    -G

    Shane,
    You know, this is the stuff I wish I could find in the manual! You're awesome.
    You wrote: "Now, the P2 import function basically just wraps the footage in a QT wrapper. IF you shot DVCPRO HD 720p, then the clips will import best using that codec. If you shot DVCPRO 50, then import into that codec. AIC and ProRes options are for AVCHD formats. It is best to work with DVCPRO HD natively."
    My question is this... and maybe I should find and take a class somewhere... In 3D software, if I've built an object and I know I need to apply a given texture map to a surface, I've identified the surface myself, I've set the method of mapping (x planar, cubic, UV, etc) and I identify and load the map I've saved from Photoshop, saved in a format I've selected... etc, etc.
    Basically, what I'm getting at is that I'm used to absolute control. At least back in the days of film, I knew the emulsion, I knew the pitch of the sprockets and I knew how to run strips across a sync block - I knew everything going on in front of me!
    But with Final Cut, I feel as though the software is in complete control and has automatically chosen settings under the hood. Maybe I shouldn't worry so much, but, with the fx work I create, every pass of compression I encounter is just one more chance to make a shot unusable. So, when you mention the DVCPro codecs, how do I know Final Cut is using them. And if I want to import uncompressed, how can I do that?
    I thank you - you've been most helpful!!!
