  • Importing AVCHD 720p30 makes 60fps

    I'm using a Panasonic HMC40 to shoot 720p30 video clips. When I log and transfer, the clips import fine but they play at twice the speed. When I right-click on a clip in the browser and select item properties it states the video is 60fps. I have Easy Setup set at HDV 720P30. There is no AVCHD 720p option. Anyone know where I'm going wrong? FCE V 4.01

    The Specifications/Technical Info page of your camera manual will probably mention it in one sentence.
    Most consumer camcorders shot interlaced until recently. Now some of them give the choice of interlaced or progressive.
    However, it would be quite complicated to change to true progressive so when put in progressive mode, they simply shoot 2 identical fields per frame which is pretty much the same as 1 field per frame.
    The correct name for this system is Progressive Segmented Frames (PSF).

  • FCE crashes when importing AVCHD

    Hello-I am using FCE 4.0. I'm trying to import video clips from a Panasonic SD1. Every time I try and do log and transfer and try to import the AVCHD clips, the program crashes, the clips do not import, and I have to restart it. Any suggestions? Thanks very much

    Perian is a Preference Panel found in your System Preferences in the "other" section at the bottom if you have it installed. It has an icon of a little swiss army knife. I don't know what installed it on my system but I have played around with a number of media streamers and they often need other codec packs to work. If you don't have Perian installed maybe check to see if you have any other freeware codec packs installed as it looks like they interfere with QT enough to make it crash when being used by FCE.

  • Importing AVCHD  video archived onto DVDs using Roxio Toast ?

    Can Final Cut Express import AVCHD video that has been archived onto DVDs using Roxio Toast 10 Titanium? The video is originally shot on an AVCHD camcorder (Canon HF-10), then burned into DVDs preserving the AVCHD files using Roxio Toast Titanium. I'm just wondering if you can simply insert the DVDs and import the AVCHD files into FCE. Has anyone tried it? Does it work?

    The only thing that matters is that the entire folder structure is preserved from the chip. If the software is picking out the video files then it will not work. The whole folder structure which is a data wrapper for the media is needed by FCE. It doesn't matter if you use Toast or Disk Utility to make the data disc.

  • Final Cut crashes when importing AVCHD files

    Final Cut Pro 6.0.4 crashes when I try to import AVCHD files in the Log and Transfer window (Add clip to queue, etc.). Any help appreciated.

    Found the resolution for my problem;
    FCP currently (As of 22/10/08) only supports the bottom data rate at 1080i from AVC-CAM cameras. Anything else will crash the program.
    Also needs 10.5.5 and 6.0.4

  • Importing Motion into FCE makes it crash

    I've been trying to work out some problems with Final Cut Express (FCE). Through a long process I think it may have to do with Motion. FCE was crashing at startup when on cue it said "profiling for RT Extreme. Basically after reinstalling FCE, only sequences without Motion files worked and FCE would crash if I try to drop in or import Motion files.
    I've included the posts I made in the FCE discussion:
    "I've been using FCE HD for the last two years without any problem. If anything, it was nothing but a little trashing of the preferences ot fix the problem. But yesterday morning, I started FCE up. The startup window with through everything like normal. It reminded me that I didn't have any decks connected. I clicked "Continue". The next thing that it said it was on cue was "Profiling for RT Extreme". I heard the processor sputter and the fan kick in. Saw the bright colored wheel of paralysis and the program crashed. I trashed the preferences and restarted the computer. Later I trashed anything temporal and related to Final Cut Express and zapped the PRAM. I saw on one board that possibly it was the permissions. So I went through and verified and repaired all the disks and permissions. Yet nothing has changed the impeccable crashing. I'm ready to reinstall the software but unfortunately I can't find my disks at all. So anyone got some advice."
    "Here's an update and a whole new set of questions:
    In effort to get back to work and try to finish a project by tomorrow, I called a friend and got his FCE HD disks, did a full uninstall, a full reinstall, and used my password. It started up just fine. I got my plug-ins and settings up and running and then started to work again, thinking all was fine. Opening any recent project made it crash immediately. I worked backwards through my autosave until I found a file that opened (which was hours of editing before all this happened). So I opened it, did some quick rendering. Then this project had a few Motion files that weren't in the project yet, so I tried to import them. Immediately the system crashed. Any Motion file will make it crash. Though, they open fine in Motion. So this makes me wonder if the reason it was crashing before is based on the Motion files which may have been a problem for FCE and its "Profiling For RT Extreme". So maybe why my sequences would make the system crash is based on the Motion files within in them. Hmmm. Any ideas on this Motion sickness?

    Export it as a movie file with the settings consistent with your sequence settings

  • Importing avi movies from my Canon camera makes iPhone crash

    Every time when i make some movies with my Canon camera (Powershot S2 IS) and I want to import them, together will all my pics on my camera, into iPhoto it makes iPhot crash from the point where it is importing the first AVI movie it comes across.
    Now I've successfully imported the movies onto my harddrive now using the Image Capture program, but still when I want to import the movies from my harddrive into iPhoto, or even when i want to play them in Quicktime, it makes iPhoto crash, and also Quicktime crashes when i'm trying to view the movie in there.
    can somebody point me to an alternative solution or tell me what's wrong and what i need to fix in order to fix it?

    Thanks. I'd love to install that one, but i've heard some stories that this piece of software does quite some harm to some things. I dont remember where i read that or what harm it would do. but i'm sure i've heard it someone say.
    can you confirm this? or do you still very much recommend me to install this?

  • Does FCPX import AVCHD 1920x1080?

    I have a Canon XA10 camcorder which is supported by iMovie and FCPX.  When I import through iMovie, my video retains full 1920x1080, but importing the same video in fcpx seems to be reduced in quality.  I can import in iMove and then import the iMovie event in fcpx and everything seems fine.  Is there a setting in fcpx to retain this res in fcpx?  Is the difference my imagination?  Please advise.

    Yes, FCP X imports AVCHD 1920x1080 in full quality.
    All you do is select Import from Camera, with the camera connected and switched on of course, and the Import window should appear.
    The only time it may appear of lower quality is if you are importing as a proxy, which you shouldn't be doing normally.

  • AVCHD archive importing questions

    Hello. I have a Canon HF10. I am new to video editing and am just now digging in to learn iMovie, so up until tonight, I've been recording on the camera, and when I need space on the camera, simply moving the entire folder structure on the camera's internal hard drive to a firewire external drive. Now I have iMovie 09 and I'm ready to start using that footage.
    My understanding is at this point I would need to use the "import camera" archive feature. When I do that it asks me to find the archive, so I go to the original folder structure on my external drive and try to select the folder with all the footage (I'm actually unclear which folder this would be as I see AVCHDTN folder, BDMV folder, CANON folder, and there are files and/or folders inside of each of these), but each folder has all its items greyed out and when I try to select any of them iMovie returns the following error:
    Folder is Not a Camera Archive
    Please select a folder that is a camera archive, then click Import.
    What am I doing wrong?

    I ran into this myself. I had to quit and re-launch iMovie to get it to import my archive. You might want to reboot your computer as well.
    When you re-launch iMovie got to the root level of the archive which should be the name of your camera. You might have to re-launch a few times to get it to work.

  • How do I import AVCHD videos into FCP X?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm running FCP X on a Macbook Pro (2.3 GHz Intel i5, 4GB RAM), and I am filming with a Sony Handycam AVCHD camera.  I've tried simply importing AVCHD footage from the Handycam using the camera import setting in FCP, and sometimes it will recognize the camera, but usually it will not.  I've also tried importing the footage in iMovie, but I have the same issue.  After I realized that FCP does not communicate well with the camera, I purchased a third party converter called 4Media MP4 converter.  Sometimes this solves the issue and the video will convert to MP4, which I can then edit in FCP.  But most of the time the footage gets converted into slow motion video with regular speed audio.  I've also tried Aunsoft Final Mate for Mac, but the quality from that sucked even worse!
    Does anyone know how to make this work?  Am I doomed to be unable to use an AVCHD camera with my Mac?  Are there any better third party converters?

    In FCP 7 I'd normally use the Log and Transfer function to convert the AVCHD files to ProRes. However with FCP X you can use the Import from Camera... command in the File menu or the button shortcut for the same function.
    This can be done by connecting the camera, or putting the memory card from the camera into a card reader, and then, from within the Imprt from Camera dialogue, selecting Open Archive and select the camera, card or in my case the backup I've made of the card.
    I regularly back up my AVCHD files to hard disk, or BluRay data disk, so I can reuse my SD cards but an important thing to remember when doing this is that you need to copy the whole directory structure of the memory card to a new folder on the hard drive. Simply selecting the .mts files won't work as the 'Import From Camera' function needs to see the whole directory structure to interpret the what files are there etc. I create a new folder and then copy all the folders and files on my card into that folder on my hard drive. When selecting Import from Camera/Open Archive I then choose the folder, not the files inside it. Once this is done the video files are presented and I can audition them and choose to import all of them or select the files I want.
    None of these methods require the files to be transcoded prior to import. You can choose the transcoding method during import so that either high quality ProRes files are created or Proxy files, smaller and lower quality for editing.

  • Can't import AVCHD files since i've updated to  OSX 10.7.

    Can't import AVCHD files since i've updated to FCPX 10.03 and OSX 10.7.  Before it worked ok.
    When I try to import files from the Camera, or the Memory Stick they end up looking like offline files.  On my other mac (iMac intel core duo 27", with OS 10.6) I can still import these files.

    Make sure you don't have Proxy checked in Playback Preferences.

  • How to import AVCHD from Panasonic DMC-FT1?

    Hello everybody,
    I just tried to import AVCHD Lite media files from a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FT1 (also known as DMC-TS1) using an USB card reader and the log and transfer function.
    A preview of the media files works, even the sound is ok.
    When I mark the video for import it tries to import it, but if I click on the clip its status becomes a red {!}. An offered retry gives the same result.
    Sometimes, especially after a preview of the media file, the log and transfer function crashes the whole FCE application.
    Thank you for your help!
    Best regards,
    Florian

    OK, I tried tried this. No direct success but after changing settings I will try again.
    I don't know your camera nor its terminology, what's the frame size and frame rate and audio format and sample rate?
    Sorry - the technical documentation is not very good. Here is what I found out:
    1,280 x 720 pixels, AVCHD Lite (SH: 17 Mbps / H: 13 Mbps / L: 9 Mbps):
    [NTSC] 60p *CCD output is 30p (fps).
    [PAL] 50p *CCD output is 25p (fps).
    Since I live in Germany I've got a PAL model.

    Thanks for the links!
    (None was about Panasonic, but lots about import problems like mine.)
    Is the audio set to plain stereo in log and transfer?
    Yes, I chose "simple stereo" instead of "matrix stereo".
    Maybe this is important: The camera has only one microphone. And it has a feature called "Dolby Digital Creator".
    Did you empty the cache?
    I remember something like that. I'll try again.
    What drive are you ingesting to? How is it formatted?
    It's an external USB 2.0 hard drive. It's formatted with Mac OS Extended (Case senstive and journaled)
    Do you have Perian installed?
    No.
    It's very possible this doesn't work with FCE, but it might, so if you give us as much information as you can maybe we can see something that can be adjusted to make this work.
    Thanks a lot for your effort!
    I see you're using a Mac mini. What are the full specs of that? It's going to be very borderline for editing video and some things in the application will not work.
    2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4 GB RAM (3 GB usable)
    Intel GMA 950 graphics using 64 MB RAM
    200 GB 7200rpm hard drive
    1 TB USB 2.0 external hard drive
    Looking at the simple configuration of FCE, none seems to really fit:
    We have "AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec" but not with 1280x720.
    We have "HDV-Apple Intermediate Codec 720p25" but not with AVCHD.
    And, of course, lots more. Which one should I choose?
    Thank you, again!
    Best regards,

  • Importing Camera Archive

    I have a homemade DVD, in my Mac and when I import "Camera Archive"
    It imports fine, but I need to Edit some parts, so I import the Clips, and they show up in a ramdom order, (not from the beggining to the end).
    Draging them to put them in order is almost impossible, so my Question is:
    Is there a way to Import Camera Archive and made them show in the right sequence?.
    I will try to make myself understood, so imagine the file Camera Archive has files
    from 1 to 16 and when Imported they show up 7,9,4..... whith no sequence.
    Could someone please light my way?
    Thanks

    Well, interesting thing upon further research.
    All my AVCHD archives were in a standard folder under Movies->iMovie Camera Archives.  Within that folder there is folder after folder of archives.  I can see them just fine in Finder.
    When I go to the "iMovie Camera Archives" folder in iMovie it says: "iMovie Camera Archives.localized" and NONE of those sub-folders show up.  I copied one of the archives to my desktop and it imported perfectly fine.  So it's something odd about the iMovie Camera Archives folder itself that is preventing me from importing all those archives.  Odd.  Thanks!

  • FCPX crashing when I try to share a project

    When I try to export a project creating a new master file FCPX crashes.
