Importing problems shooting with loaner Canon xha1

This week I used the Canon xha1 and it was a great experience but when I get home to import can't do it. I get the following error "The operation could not be completed as there is no video" in a pop-up screen. At the both of FCE it states Device must be in VTR mode when device control is enabled.
I don't know what to do because when I try to import the film from an HV 20 or the xha1 it plays in the LCD screen but it pops open the error message above. Is there a way for me to set it up the correct import. Please respond as soon as possible????

Make sure the output on the camera is set correctly. Are you outputting HD? Make sure that's what the camera is set to do and that's the device control you're using not the DV device control. These are all set in menus in the camera.

I shoot with a Canon 7D, have Windows 7 installed on my computer, Adobe CS4 (Bridge & Photoshop). I'm trying to open the CR2 files in Bridge to adjust them before I open them up in Photoshop, but it's giving me an error code saying it's the wrong file type. I downloaded the latest updates for Adobe Raw as well as the DNG converter, however I don't want to have to convert to DNG before opening in Bridge. Please let me know what I can do to open the CR2 files directly in Bridge CS4, thank you!

Connectivity with the Canon XHA1S

I shot in HD30F with the Canon XHA1S, using sony HDV cassettes. When I tried to capture using HDV settings in FCP (6.06), the camera couldn't connect and would only capture in SD settings.
Thoughts?

Verify that your camera settings are correct – HDV output selected Down Convert turned OFF.
Verify that your FCP Easy Set-up is HDV 1080i Firewire Basic.

Recent Problem Scanning with a Canon Lide 600F

Hello, I'm using Acrobat v10.1.9 on a Windows 7 64Bits OS and with a Canon 600F Scanner (latest drivers installed).
During few weeks after a fresh installed I was able to use my Canon with Acrobat X. The scanner was recognized and I was able to put some presets etc...
Since today, and perhaps after an Acrobat update, the scanner is not recognized and no communication can be settled. I'm able to use the scanner through WIA interface but is is very limited compared to what I used to have !
I uninstalled the drivers of the Scanner and Acrobat and reinstalled but still the same problem : the scanner is not recognized by Acrobat (only in WIA).
The scanner works perfectly and is fully recongized by other software that can use it in normal mode and not through WIA.
Did somebody had this problem and succeeed in solving it ?
Best regards

Down loading video with a Canon XHA1

I have a Canon XHA1 HD camcorder. I had the final cut pro on my I mac set to except the video. I was able to down load my footage. The system went back to standard settings. I don't know which code I put when I try to set the easy settings for downloading video. Does anybody know which video formate do I set in log and capture for me to download my video again?

If you've shot 1080i HDV, set the device control to HDV FW basic, and the capture preset to HDV 1080i...

Import problems FCP7 with MPEG-2 Video, MPEG Layer 2

Good afternoon everyone...
I have a file that is an MPEG-2 Video, MPEG Layer 2 with a .mpg Extenshion and I am having problems importing it into
FCP 7. I have tried MPEGStreamClip, Compressor and a low end product called Total Video Converter. In FCP 7 I tried media manager and Log and transfer, but FCP did not even recognize it.
THE PROBLEM IS that when ever I convert the video it has a lot of video noise.
When I convert the video, I use proven the following presets DVDPro/DV, DVCPro720, XDCamEX 720. (I have
not tried Pro Res yet)
Does anyone have expeirence with these kinds of Mpeg2 Transport or Mpeg2 Program streams? Are there any QT plug ins?
-M

Michael...
Mpeg Streamclip is my go to program...
In MpegStreamclip the video does not show up, just a white box so I moved to Apple Compressor and Total Video Converter. Apple Comp and Total Video Converter could play and convert the clip.
(Do I need a plug in for Streamclip?)
Below you will find the stream info:
Duration: 0:23:41
Data Size: 1.04 GB
Bit Rate: 6.26 Mbps
Video Tracks:
224 MPEG-2, 720 × 480, 16:9, 29.97 fps, 6.00 Mbps, 4:2:2(!), lower field first
Audio Tracks:
192 MP2 stereo, 48 kHz, 224 kbps
This appears to be a fairly robust formated file.

Import HD video with my Canon HV20

Hi, I have a Canon HV20 which is a High Def camera. I bought a firecable at the Apple Store, but now I'm trying to import it into Final Cut. I used the Log and Capture, then went and imported it as HV NTSC 48 Khz. When I burn it with DVD Studio Pro it doesn't look like it is HD. So what is a correct preset that Final Cut will recognize it because when I select like one of the DVDPRO options he won't recognize it. Thank you and much obliged for any help.

Thanks for your reply. I still can't find it in the list, attached is a screen shot. Thank you for your help!

Premiere Pro CC import problem only with last .VOB file

When I import .VOB files from any DVD into Premiere Pro CC, the last .VOB always cut picture from both sides. When I click to see properties of the file (in Bin panel) it shows me that image size is 540 x 576 instead of 720 x 576. The video isn't shrunken but cut off. I got two black bars on both sides of the screen (in Premiere Pro CC). That wasn't happened with CS6 and now it happens always and only with last .VOB file. All other files from same VIDEO_TS folder are imported correctly. When I convert that last .VOB to .avi or any other format everything is OK. Any suggestions?

Yes it works, but I have no time to convert file every time I need something archived that way. I used that method years ago, and if I'm not wrong we are progressing a little Most of today options you have in Premiere 5 (maybe even in earlier versions; I'm using it from version 5.1) and it worked. So if you think like that, why we need version 7.2.1 ? Actually this is 14.2.1 version if you count from version 1 back in 1991.
It's not about to manage, it's about to have what you pay for, it's about to speed up the process.
Thank you anyway for your comment

ProRes422HQ with a Canon HV30 and Final Cut....

I'm shooting with a Canon HV30 in HDV24p Cinema Mode. When interfacing to Final Cut Pro, my understanding is that the Cinema Mode records at regular 29.97, but with the look of 24fps. FCP crashes when I try to import it as ProRes422(HQ).
Can anyone please enlighten me as to what sequence settings I should be using to edit an HD movie, combining old home movies that are 720x480 alongside the HD footage? This is for a high end customer who wants the best quality possible (with reasonable render times and work loads on the CPU).

For the Canon VIXIA HV30 If you set cinema mode up correctly on the cannon your shooting in 24fps or 24p
Try using 1080i/24p setting for easy setup. You can get there by going to easy set up. Then chosing:
Format:HD
Rate:(all rates) from the "all rates" drop down chose 1080/24p firewire basic. Not sure on this.
I just got the camera and noticed that when I select the "firewire basic" option I have issues.
I have been using the: HD 1080i/60 as that is what cannon mentions that HDV is being encoded at.
Hope that helps. I plan on shooting some 24p clips soon and will post my results.

Audio lag from Canon XHA1 speaker during log and capture

Hey All,
I'm working with a Canon XHA1. I'm logging and capturing video shot in HDV (1920 by 1080) @ 60i, . I can see the video on screen but the audio playing back from the camera is about half a second behind what I'm seeing on screen.
My video monitor on the camera sincs up fine with the audio during this process AND my final capture is fine. It's just hard to work with this audio delay during the log and capture.
Is this a settings issue? I don't think I can monitor sound through the computer during log and capture, right?
Here are my settings:
Sequence preset:
HDV - 1080i60
Capture preset: HDV
Device control preset:
HDV Firewire Basic
Video Playback: None
Audio Playback: Default
Any suggestions?
AND can anybody tell me what Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60 means?
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Oh, and I neglected to mention I'm using a MacBook Pro running 10.4.10 and I'm running FCP 5.1.4
Thanks in advance.

Final Cut Pro/GY-HD111E import problems?

Final Cut Pro/GY-HD111E import problems?
With a brand new Mac Pro and very latest Final Cut Studio complete with updates I'm having a little problem trying to import footage directly from a JVC GY-HD111E (yes I'm in PAL land, UK) via FireWire into FCP.
Footage is 720p/25p and timeline is set up in FCP that way.
I'm doing a 'capture now'. The first clip I'm trying to import is about 45 minutes long with no cuts/breaks whatsoever.
What happens is after about 60 seconds or so, it FCP automatically breaks the clip for no reason and starts a new one, trouble is, when it does this I lose about 4 seconds of footage at that point.
It continues to break clips randomly, sometimes after 40 seconds or so, sometimes after 95 seconds, but usually between 30 seconds and 2 minutes and each time it starts a new clip I lose between 1 and 6 seconds.
As I say, there are zero breaks or cuts in this clip, I have a 45 minute clip that was shot in one take, not even a pause anywhere.
Is this a JVC issue or a Final Cut issue?
It's a pain as it simply means I can't import my 9 hours of footage hence I can't get on with this project.
Any ideas why this phenomenon is happening?
Thanks guys.

I mean I get the same errors.
Let me explain again.
There are NO start/stop/pauses in this clip.
I'm trying to import just ONE clip with no breaks, again, there are NO start/stop/pause, it is one continuous clip of 15 minutes duration.
The JVC creates some sort of errors at the Firewire output stage, it drops frames or other errors, FCP gets confused and creates a new clip, even though it is the same clip, but due to the GoP structure, it looses a few seconds too hence I can't import the footage as I keep loosing bits here and there mid clip. It is randam, every 30 to 100 seconds or so it will do this.

I have problems with my films that become slightly jerky after I have imported and edited them in iMovie and then burned them onto a DVD using iDVD. I can see the weak jerkiness when panning in both laterally and vertically. I shoot with a camcorder Canon

I have problems with my films that become slightly jerky after I have imported
and edited them in iMovie and then burned them onto a DVD using iDVD.
I can see the weak jerkiness when panning in both laterally
and vertically.
I shoot with a camcorder Canon Vixia HF10. The camera has been set to deliver HD quality (1920x1080). But I have accidentally filmed with a frame rate of 60 (?).
When I import the films in iMovie I have been asked if I want to change to frame rate 30 (instead of 25). I have chosen 30.
Could it be the setting of a frame rate 60 in my camcorder that causes jerkiness when panning or what else?

Problems with some Canon Raw files

I'm having a very frustrating problem and would be interested in seeing if anyone else has seen this.
I have images shot in raw with a Canon 1D Mk II. Some of the files cannot be rendered in Aperture - they show a gray thumbnail and the red "unsupported file format" display in Viewer. If I open the Library package and navigate to these files, I can view them fine in every other browser/converter - ACR, Capture One, DPP, iView Media Pro, Bridge.
Preview is also unable to view the image as I'd expect with the same error as Aperture.
I do know about the Photo Mechanic problem, but I don't use that app. It's not a firmware issue since I have images taken on the same day - some display some don't. I've tried importing multiple ways, making sure there is no metadata assigned, everything I can think of but no luck.
Even though most of my hair is already gray, I'd like to keep it if possible, but this has me ready to pull it out.
Any ideas?
Thanks much,
Jon Canfield

I shoot with a 1Ds and 5D and previously with a 1d and 20 . I have also seen this problem with 1D files and 1Ds files and I think it has to do with if the file had been opened in another raw converter and left with the raw adjustments in embeded. I say this because the files it gives me in grey are ones that I opened but didn't edit. I will try opening and saving in another software and then to bring back into Apeture, though the more I have to use PS CS, Bridge, DPP, or other package the less I think Aperture is going to provide a complete solution for me.

IPhoto CRASHES when I try ti import short video shot with my Canon Rebel..HELP!!!

HELP! I have a Canon Rebel EOS T3i. I shoot many wonderful still pixs. I have also shot some video (movies) during recent cruise which I was able to download and edit properly and include it in my overall Cruise Album.
I have been editing all this on iMovie,importing the photos, videos, adding titles, effexs. etc. Suddenly -TODAY- iPhoto is not letting me shoot an additional short video to include in the Album. When I IMPORT the video from the Canon into iPhoto, and click PLAY, iPhoto CRASHES! Something is wrong and I don't know what it is.

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on eight different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
