JVC Everio and 16/9

Hi all . I have trouble with video from JVC everio cams . I download video from this cam to pc with copy . Now I install trial version of Adobe premiere elemnts , create widescreen project and import video from folder . But after i import this video to adobe , the video is 4/3 and the picture is demaged ... Setting in the camera is widescreen ... thanx for help marek

Which project setting did you select when you set up your Premiere Elements project?
Premiere Elements 9 includes a special project setting for use with JVC camcorders.
Also, you don't say how you got the video from the camcorder to your computer but, if you want it to maintain its aspect ratio, you should use Premiere Elements' Get Media tool.
My free Basic Training tutorial series shows you how to set up a project and get media into it.

JVC Everio .mod files

Hi, i've got a JVC Everio and have nothing but troubles.
it creates .mod files, which i understand are just mpeg files. So i simply change the extension, but when i import them into AE, i get sometimes a few big red pixels, one frame is then all bright red.
I don't get this when i play it in another player.
In premiere the files play (red squares still happens), but no sound at all.
anyone had this problem, any extensions, workarounds?
Cheers, Dimitri

As Andrew said: Use the conversion options in the bundled software. The camera uses MPEG-II transport streams, possibly with long-GOP extensions, which is simply *yuck* for any editing. It needs at least be converted to a proper MPEG-II file with a predictable GOP scheme or even I-frame only so Premiere and AE can make sense of it. If the software CD provides a specific CoDec, you may be able to load the file as an AVI. Will be slow as hog as it relies on Windows' own components, but might at least avoid the artifacting.

I borrowed a JVC Everio Camcorder that stores the shot video in a CED format. How in the world do I play back on my MAC and convert files so I can download to iPhotos and iMovies?

I borrowed a JVC Everio HD Camcorder that shoots video and stores on an SD-Card in a CED format. I cannot playback this video on my MAC and would also like to know how to convert to a more standard form of video.

I have downloaded the trail....and it won't recognize my .264 files....not sure what the deal is? Here is a screen shot-they files are "grayed" out....and won't highlight. Do you see anything wrong? I'm pulling the files off of a Lorex DVR security system. LHD200

Is JVC Everio GZ-HM330 Camcorder compatable to Mac OSx and if so where can I download the software please?

Thanks, while it worked on yours it doesn't work on mine, any other ideas?
Are you holding down the "d" key, all by itself, just after the system shuts down for a restart?
And how long did you hold it down?
I held mine down for about 40-50 seconds. Then I lookat at my routers WAN light and it was flickering so I let up on the d key.
If that does not work then maybe there is something wrong with your MBP. Is that the reason you want to run this test, something isn't right with your unit?

Hey, I have Final Cut Express 4.0.1 and a JVC everio camera, whenever i try to import my files to FCE via "Log and transfer", it just doesn't do anything, as if FCE doesn't know the camera is there, please help !

please help !

FCE 4.0.1 can only capture DV/HDV which is produced by cameras using Mini-DV TAPES and cameras shooting AVCHD which is a high definition format.
If your camera shoots standard definition on Memory Cards, DVDs or Hard Drives it will not work in FCE.
What is your camera's exact model name and number?

FCE 4 and JVC everio hd7 "easy set up"

Ok I currently have a JVC everio hd7 which is a hard drive based cam. I also bought FCE 4 but I am exhausted of importing clips to imovie6 and then FC. I would like to know if anyone has had any luck with these two?

Not sure why you are going through iMovie first. Sounds like you are in the same boat I am with my hard drive based Sony cam. If your JVC saves clips as MPG, you have to use MPEG Streamclip to convert them. There is a batch save option which allows you to save all your clips in the same format, then you can walk away and let it do the work. Go to http://www.squared5.com to download the free software. Use these settings when you export:
Export to Quicktime
Compression: Apple DV/DVCPRO - NTSC
Quality: 100%
Frame Size: 854 x 480 (16:9) [If your camera is 16:9, which most new cameras are.]
Be sure to deselect "Interlaced Scaling" and "Reinterlace Chroma" so you don't get that jittery effect.
The mov files will end up being twice the size of the mpg, but according to Ian Brown, that's normal.

Importing .MOD and .MOI files to iMovie - from JVC EverioS GZ-MS100

I'm desperate in finding a solution on the problems I have with importing .MOI and .MOD files to iMovie from a JVC EverioS GZ-MS100.
I have looked up all advices I can, also on this forum... But nothing seems to work for me at all!
PLEASE someone tell me asap how I can get my videos to iMovie so I can start editing my videos...
Thank you so much in advance!!
I have iMovie '09 version 8.0.6 (821).

The Zi6 is not on the compatibilty list however I based my knowledge on this review at macworld.com
http://www.macworld.com/article/135948/2008/10/kodakzi6.html
"To copy your captured content to the Mac, flip out the USB connector, switch on the camera, and jack it into a free USB 2.0 port. If you have the latest version of iPhoto, it launches and offers to import the separate video and image files. If you don’t have the most recent version of iPhoto, you’re welcome to import files into iMovie ‘08 with the File: Import Movie command, or into iMovie HD via the File: Import command. Each command produces an Import navigation window, where you can locate the movies on the attached camera (within the DCIM folder).
The Zi6’s movies are encoded in the H.264 format; as a result, there’s no need to install another codec to use them as you would for movies recorded with the Flip cameras, because H.264 is natively supported by QuickTime (and therefore iMovie and Final Cut Pro). Audio is recorded in the AAC format at 48 Kbps."
So this suggests iMovie 08 will accept the file format the Zi6 porduces. I will attempt file conversion before I loose iMovie 06 though.

IMovie 2008 and JVC Everio HD Camcorder

I recently purchased a brand new iMac and a JVC Everio HD Camcorder. The first time I tried to import the videos taken from my JVC, iMovie recognized it. Now it seems that it does not. Everytime I connect the camcorder to the iMac only iPhoto opens. When I go to "File" "Import from camera" the internal iMac camera opens but nothing with the Everio Camcorder.
What is wrong?

The same happens to us. The JVC HD camcorder had worked fine importing when I dragged the .TOD movie files in to iMovie 06. Now,I try to drag the same file type to iMovie 08 -- and it doesn't even recognize the file.
But iMovie 06 recognizes 1440 CBR files when importing via firewire. Maybe if you film in CBR format, iMovie 08 will recognize he file? Here's a link to the JVC's site for a tutorial on the CBR format: http://media2.jvc.com/camcorder/macHD.mov
Hmmm, but what about my .TOD files in iMovie 08?????? That's the problem! Thanks for any and all help!

JVC HD Everio and AVCHD

Using iMovie 08, trying to import a movie from a JVC HD Everio and get a message that Says, "AVCHD Device not supported, an Intel-Based Core Duo Macintosh is required to capture AVCHD video; try changing your camcorder setting to standard definition."
A call to the JVC Help Line brought me no help; setting can't be changed. She did think that if I used a DVD Recorder, the software involved would strip away the HD and give me standard.
That made me ask; is there software that I can install that would read the HD file and give me a standard definition output?

Dug out the program and it ain't the greatest but it fills an "emergency" situation.
The file I worked with was a 1 minute mts file 125.8 MB in size.
There are several ways to convert the file.
AVCHD to "Native" AVCHD which only took 2 minutes and 13 seconds BUT gave me a file I still couldn't use.
There is a conversion for You Tube and for iPhone which I didn't try.
Convert to Apple TV creates a 600 MB m4v file but took 30 minutes to do.
Convert (Custom) was a real puzzling one. It created an mov file BUT was a still of the first frame accompanies with 1 minute of AUDIO AND TOOK 68 minutes.
Convert was the first on the list and quadrupled the file size but created a nice looking (on computer monitor) 1 minute video AND it only (haha) took 20 minutes.

After an upgrade to Mavericks - my Video Camera is no longer recognized by the system (JVC Everio HD video camera)

I just upgraded to Mavericks (up from Mountain Lion) last week. Today, I tried to upload movies to my MacBook Pro, and it no longer 'sees' the camera when plugged into the USB port. I have tired iMovie, iPhoto, and also direct access, via the hard drive. Nothing works. I have even restarted the computer with the camera plugged in and it is still not being recognized, and I cannot get the movies 'out' of the camera. I have never had a problem before , In fact I loaded movies last week, just by pluggin it into the USB.
Are there ANY suggestions on how or what to do for it to start to pick up on the fact that my video camera is indeed plugged in and has movies that can be imported?
Thanks!

DO NOT BUY A JVC EVERIO!!!!

I own a bunch of cameras so I have a educated opinion.
I purchased a JVC Everio GZ-MG130 and the camera is not worth the money they want for it. I purchased it brand new and I tried it once. Had formatting problems, in the middle of recording it told me there was trouble with the hard drive and it need to be re-formatted!!! But after TWENTY times of doing that it became frustrating. Add to that that about 2 hours of critical footage is now lost and gone forever. No, I didn't delete it, it just is not there. Great Camera huh? I knew better than to go with JVC. Shame on me. Hopefully I can return it and get a better one. I'm torn between the Panasonic (good company) or a Sony. I already have 2 MiniDV cams, I want a HD Cam. Can anyone give good advice on them? Hopefully my JVC disaster will save others from wasting time and money.

Well, I bought a JVC Everio after reading so much about Camcorders and the MAC. I need the hard drive for my trip to Africa, tapes and DVD's just aren't practical. My problem is that after I connect my Everio to the MAC, the still images seem to be okay in that they open in iPhoto. However, in order to open the video clips I was testing out, seems like I had to open iMovie 8, but when I do and try to import the clips they are grayed out, yet they don't show up in iPhoto so I can just drag them over. Any ideas what to do. I'm a novice and am just trying to make sure I can do it and then learn more about iDVD and perhaps build something from there. I cannot take the camera back nor do I want to - it is a great camcorder and easy to use and will work for my purpose. I just need to find out what to do to import the clips. Everything is recognizable, the icon shows up on my desktop, the clips are there etc. Anyone with any good ideas, I'd be happy to hear them.

LR 4.2 won't import a JVC Everio MOD (MPG) video file

I have hundreds of JVC Everio video files that are natively created as MOD files on the camcorder. However, I can copy them to my Windows 7 system and simply rename them as *.MPG files and they play fine in Windows Media Player. I noticed that Adobe Premier Elements can import MOD files, but I get a "There is a problem with the video file..." error message in LR4.2 when I try to import the renamed MPG file. The Import function won't display MOD files as a valid file format, but the MPG files do appear in the Import browser list.

I'm confused about the licensing issue.
Cyberlink PowerDirector will successfully import and manipulate both *.MOD files and MOD files renamed as *.MPG.
Adobe Premier Elements can (apparently) import MOD files (see http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/supported-file-formats-premiere-elements.html).
Why can't Lightroom?
Any recommendations on what format to convert the MOD files to so I can import them into Lightroom?

JVC Everio GZ-MG630 60GB Camcorder Compatibility with FCP

I was wanting to get a little cheap & compact camcorder for carrying around and do away with tapes at the same time. Has anyone had any luck with FCP & hard drive camcorders with no tapes specifically the JVC Everio’s?
I have always been a miniDV user so this is all new…. however I was able to help a friend get his hard drive camcorder setup after having to get a converter online. I am just a little reluctant to invest in a camcorder when I don’t know if it will work or not.
Thanks for your help all!

Have you searched this forum for info on these (JVC Everio model) cameras yet? Interesting reading...with some relevent workflows.
