Importing Sony XDCAM EX3 clips no audio? PPRO CS3

Hi,
I have been trying to import some XDCAM EX3 footage to CS3 3.2.
I have imported  2 of the BPAV folders and they are fine.
The other 3 BPAV- when I import the video is fine but no audio? I'm a bit worried? Where is the audio?
many thanks for any help.
scott

Hello,
I tried going in to the BPAV folder- opening the CLPR folder then trying to view one of the mpeg 4 quicktimes.
I get an error message - Error 2010- the movie contains some invalid data.
BUT these are on the files that imported fine into ppro cs3.
I don't know if the audio files are AC3.
I went to the clips in the timeline that worked and hit properties and it said they were LCPM16?
BUT again, some of the BPAV folders were fine.
This is my first time trying to import these files.
I thought it would work straight away!!

  • Cannot import Sony XDCAM HD 35mbps clips

    Download the Sony XDCAM software for FCP HD. Can download only clips up to 25mbps but not their HD quality 35mbps.
    What seems to be the problem - a No Codec text is displayed on the images.

    Sony haven't publically released the new version of the XDCAM Transfer tool yet.
    v1.0 is the current release, v1.1 is the one that enables 35mbps.

  • Can I import Sony .mts files with seperate audio layer into AE?

    I can import .mts files from my Sony SR11 OK but the audio is in the same layer as the video content.
    When I go to Edit/Edit in Adobe Audition and Audition opens Audition reports in details box, "Error:File not supported by any currently registered plug-ins."
    The Audition Audio Plug-in Manager shows no available plug-ins.
    Can I import the .mts file as seperate layers as one can with Premiere Pro? Alteratively perhaps, what plug-ins should I look for to add to Audition?

    AE doesn't separate audio. You'll have to do it elsewhere, possibly in Premiere Pro or tools like ffmpeg/MPEGStreamclip. It's odd, though. since these components are the same in all the suite apps, a file that works in AE should just the same open in AU (without showing teh video in teh worst case). .mts is just MPEG2 or AVCHD in disguise, anyway, which the apps should open without a hitch - if it's not out of spec. I'd look into your camera settings, though. maybe you recorded to the wrong channels or an odd audio sampel rate and it's messing things up.

  • Cannot import sony xdcam hd mxf files into CS6

    I have tried every thing, reinstalling, adobe tech, main concept.
    Any ideas?

    OK.  Try skipping that.  Put the disk into a Blu-ray drive and just use Windows Explorer to copy everything over.
    We have the same camera and disc drive. You can't put the discs into a standard bluray drive as they have are in a cartridge. The disc reader he's using is the appropriate way to import that media.
    I'm not sure what's going on for you but I'm unable to replicate your problem. Put XDCAM disc into drive, copy entire contents to a folder, then in media browser right click on that folder (not the subfolders) and click import. I get a bin named whatever the folder was called, with all my clips inside. I'm on CS6.0.2 on a mac.

  • Premiere CC v7.2 "generic import error" Sony xdcam 422 50mb / PDW F800

    I'm receiving a "generic import error" when attempting to import Sony XDCAM footage in to Premiere Pro CC v7.2.0 (PC). The footage is in the original file structure transferred from a Sony XDCAM disc. The format is 1920x1080p, 29.97, 50mbps mpeg-2 long GOP (CBR). Shot with a Sony PDW F800 camera. It opens and plays fine with the Sony XDCAM viewer. I've tried importing the entire folder structure from PP media browser with no success. Not getting any thumbnails or previews from the files. PP will import the proxy files (mxf/mp4) but not the mpeg-2 HD media. Any insight on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    Hey Wil, got this figured out quite painlessly considering the train wreck that it was to begin with. The material consisted of 4 mxf discs all with sequentially numbered duplicate filenames from disc to disc… cameramen love to torture editors. Simply renaming the clips using the OS would not work so here’s what I did. Starting with Bridge I identified the HD material apart from the 8 audio files and 1 proxy file per clip by performing a file search using the letter (V), only the HD video material has a (V) in the filename. Next I copied only the video files to a work folder as to not alter the original disc structure, I did this for each mxf disc. Next critical step was to turn off all metadata logging in Bridge except the filename metadata, then I used the batch renaming function with 3 criteria: 1-seed each filename with the disc number, 2- retain original clip name, and 3-rename extension to mpg. I did this for each disc. Next step was to batch encode using AME. I processed each disc using the same codec as the original source material, MXF/OP1a, Sony XDCAM 50mb with smart rendering codec enabled. My system ripped through this process at amazing speed, it retained the original source clip time code and the quality appears to be unaltered from the original. The reason for turning off the metadata logging in Bridge was to strip off the mxf reference, AME would not process the files by simply renaming them using the OS. Total time to clean-up train wreck; 40 minutes.
    BTW: I did not need the associated audio from these clips otherwise there would have been an extra step involved using premiere’s nesting feature as you had mentioned.
    Happy Holidays.

  • Hw do you import XDCAM proxy clips only in FCP?

    I have Sony PDW-U1 deck with XDCAM disks. When I go into FCP, file, import, Sony XDCAM it launches
    Sony XDCAM transfer. I then select the clips and then import them into a specified location. I then import these clips into FCP. When I import these clips my problem is is that it only imports the hi-rez clips. How do get XDCAM transfer to import the proxies and not the hi-rez clips?
    Thanks
    Patch 2000

    If the clock was set on the camera it should break it up as it captures it. If not you have to split it manually just as you did in iMovie using keywords and favorites.

  • Sony XDCAM PDW 1500

    Hi
    How do I connect my macbook pro laptop, fully updated to the XDCAM PDW 1500 vtr that has dvcam footage shot in PAL SD 25 fps. I have tried all the settings!
    Is there any plugins or software I should download?
    Thanks
    Message was edited by: alaska001

    you have a few choices:
    a) connect the deck via firewire and set the deck's iLINK setting to AV/C mode and set the remote interface to iLINK .. then log and capture from the deck as if it were a DV tape based device
    b) you need to download and install Sony's free XDCAM Transfer app to log and transfer the source clips at faster than real time ... again, connect the deck via firewire, but for this method set the deck's iLINK setting to FAM mode. now launch the app from FCP using File > Import > Sony XDCAM...
    https://serviceplus.us.sony.biz/sony-software.aspx?model=pdzkp1
    c) you can buy and use Flip4Mac's XDCAM component which allows tapeless capture via Ethernet ... connect the deck to your Mac's network and and launch the app from FCP using File > Import > Sony XDCAM (Ethernet) ...
    http://www.flip4mac.com/pro_xdcam.htm
    my recommendation would be option b) as this is easily the fastest and most versatile method

  • My audio gets out of sync with my video after capturing from Sony XDCAM

    Everything was fine. I captured content from my Sony XDCAM, created pieces, no problem. Imported a .mov from my older FCP (5.1.4). FCP told me I needed to change my settings in order to use the .mov with my current timeline. I said OK, fine. Now, when I capture from my XDCAM some of the audio is in sync but it goes out fairly quickly. Any Ideas? I noticed in the bin the clips which are out of sync have a different data rate then the good ones. HELP!

  • Can't import from Sony XDCAM memory card to FCP 6

    I can't import from Sony XDCAM memory card to FCP 6.01 HD. Am using Macbook Pro, 2 gig of RAM. This is my first time NOT using tape. I can copy the files off the memory card onto an external drive (to free up the card for pro crew's next day's shoot), but can't import either to FCP. Do I need to convert the files in some way before FCP can read them? Need to fix this problem fast as the crew are off to Nepal for 2 week shoot.

    Laura,
    First, I'm assuming that you're referring to the XDCAM EX. You'll need to install the FCP 6.0.2 upgrade, which contains the XDCAM EX codecs.
    Second, You'll need to install the PDZK-P1 Transfer Application, and use that to import your EX clips into FCP. I just noticed that there is a new version available, 2.5.1 which is labeled specifically for Tiger/Leopard. I haven't tested this version yet, and will report back on any stability issues. We're currently running version 2.1.1, without many issues.

  • Sony XDCAM import plugin for FCPX - Not working

    Has anyone used this new plugin by Sony to import Sony EX3 footage. 
    I havent been able to import files.  When using the import from camera tool, it doesnt see my cards or BPAV folders. 
    I currently use XDCAM Transfer which works great, but I am having playback problems with these imports. 
    This didnt use to happen with the previous 10.0.3 version.
    Keen to know if anyone else is having these issues.

    Use XDCAM Browser.

  • Import Sony HDD video/audio problems

    I have tried to import video footage from a Sony Handycam DCR-SR82 hard drive camcorder into Premiere Pro CS3, but it only imports the video...no audio. It works fine if I import it into Premiere Pro 2. Thanks for any help you can provide. OS - Windows Vista. All updates to Premiere CS3 have been installed.

    Here's the original message I read with the fix:
    There is a fix!!!!!
    If you have Encore CS3 installed...just copy the file ad2ac3dec.dll from the Encore CS3 directory and paste it into the Premier Pro CS3 root directory. This will allo PPcs3 to accept mpeg files with the ac3 extention. If you already have files imported in your projects...you will have to remove those files and re-import them. So far there are no side effects to this process. Have fun all you damn sony camcoder owners.
    http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx?128@@.3bc46794
    It works brilliantly. Unfortunately, once you get that fixed you will find yourself with another problem...random red frames in your projects. We use SR-82s at work and I have a Sony SR-1. Both cameras' mpgs will give you the red frame problem in CS3.
    As a workaround, you can convert your mpgs to avi or re-encode with h.264 codec before importing into CS3. That worked for me.

  • Best Import Settings for Sony XDCAM EX

    Ok, this is a variation on my best export settings question. Considering the Sony XDCAM EX1 shoots 8 bit video with 4:2:0 color space, what's the best import settings to use? Which DNX codec will give you the best results? I don't want to import at a quality higher than my source material. And of course, I don't want to import at a quality lower than my source material. I'm looking for the sweet spot.
    Thanks
