Problem to get rushes from SONY DCR-DVD203E

I work on a TOSHIBA Intel Core DUO T5750 with 3,00 GO memory . The operating system is Windows Vista édition familiale Premium Service Pack 1, and Adobe première element 4 .
I use a Sony DCR-DVD203E getting rushes on DVD .
I have 10 rushes of 2 minutes on the DVD . I finalised the DVD before importing the rushes under PREMIERE ELEMENT 4 as discribed in the user manual, before beginning the montage .
When I do, under Premiere element 4, add media , I get only Two files .
the first one called VTS_01_1.VOB .this one is a rush of 20 minutes corresponding of the total of my 10 rushes of 2 minutes .
I cannot get the second one , and I recieve the message :
C:\Users\videos\20081125\VIDEO_TS ...file format not recognised or file corrupted / a necessary component is may be not installed .
I should get my 10 rushes of 2 minutes instead of 1 rush of 20 minutes .
has somebody encountered the problem ?

  • Service center not getting approval from Sony India

    Dear Samuel, First of all thank you for your concern about my issue. The problem is still unresolved. Today also i contacted the service centre but again the  same replay " your work is rejected by the sony". This is the 5th sony mobile am using and now I am planning to approach consumer court. That is the last thing I can do for this genuine case. Thank you

    I have purchased Zperia Z1 on exchange basis from Sony authorized service
    center (Madonna Electronics,MG Road,Cochin) on 04/03/2015. Previously I had
    Zperia ZL and due to mic complaints service center suggested upgrade. But
    after purchasing  Z1 and using 3 months I noticed  mic problem in Zperia Z1
    too (person on other side couldn't hear me).
    So I submitted the device on 25.06.2015 for service and till now it is not
    repaired.
    From the service center they told me that your work is not approved because
    whenever they try to create job it is automatically showing out of
    warranty. That is eventhough the mobile is in warranty,site showing out
    warranty. Service center has explained this issue to SONY INDIA but not
    getting reply from SONY INDIA.  So from their side they are unable to do
    anything unless they get permission from Sony India.
    So today (28.07.2015 at 11 AM) I contacted toll free number and talked with
    customer care executive and we had conference mode with Mr. Jefrin from
    modonna electronices.
    Later getting enough information from Mr. Jefrin customer care executive
    directed the call to one of the Manager in Sony India and I raised the
    issue to him. Later the Manager called the Madonna electronics and one Mr.
    Ajmal explained the technical issues to the Manager.
    Finally the Manager told me to write a mail regarding the issue. I forwarded the same letter hope they will solve it

  • Quicktime 7.6.4 will not play a .MPG clip brought in from Sony dcr-sr46

    We loaded a clip from the camera onto our desktop but Quicktime 7.6.4 will not play the clip. It says it is a .mpg clip. A warning comes up and says " the movie could not be open" the file was not a movie file. This baffles us. Because info on the clip says it is 67mb. therefore it has info. we tried to change it to a .mov file and still would not play. Does any one have any ideas to why? Is it a sony thing?
    brought in from Sony dcr-sr46 camera. Thanks

    MPEG-2 files require the apple MPEG-2 Playback Component.

  • Problem with reading mpeg files from Sony DCR-SR100 30GB Handycam

    I just purchased a new Sony DCR-SR100 Handycam.
    I can upload successfully to my desktop (PowerBook G4)via a USB cable.
    I have all the latest updates for iLife, iMovie, Final Cut Pro and Quicktime. None of those applications will open the imported mpeg.
    When trying to import the file to the iMovie application I get the following error message:
    "The file could not be imported. The file M2UOOOO4.MPG can't be imported; Quicktime couldn't parse it: -2048"
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Igor,
    welcome to the  board
    ... hm, sorry to say, but:
    iMovie is a video edit app meant to work with firewire connected miniDV camcorders
    you try to teach the old dog new tricks... just one kind of mpegs can be handled with iM, that is mp4, imported via iPhoto6 (some stillcams can record a kind of "movin' images"...)
    sooo, you need to convert your stuff...
    mpegs are meant for playback only, they are a delivery format (thanks, Lennart, for this phrase).. editing/processing such files, needs to demuxx them => 3rd party tools...
    there's a very good and free solution:
    Streamclip (free)
    not using a miniDV camcorder, you miss the convenience of the iApps...

  • IMovie HD 6 won'c import from Sony DCR-PC109

    So I am among the legion of folks on here, it seems, that are having an issue with iMovie HD not able to import my video from my camera -- Sony DCR-PC109.
    1] It worked on my last movie in August (cords, camera, etc)
    2] NO, I did not put the plug in upside down
    3] The camera is recognized in System Profiler/FireWire
    4] In about three of the dozen or so times I have tried to get it to connect,iMovie HD 6 sees the camera for an instant...I go to rewind the tape, get "Can't Control Camera" message, followed by a total crash of iMovie. Sometimes the crash is so bad the entire machine hangs and I have to restart using the power button.
    5] In the other 9 times, neither iMovie HD 6 nor iMovie 8 recognize the camera
    6] iMovie HD 6 will not recognize the camera on either my Intel iMac, nor my G4 PowerBook
    7] FireWire hard drives do connect easily
    Not sure what is next. My gut is to become more down on Leopard. I've been a Mac user since 1979 (I was 7), and have switched about 10 other people to Macs because "they just work, never crash" and they are a pleasure to use. But it seems like every day lately, I have another glitch like this -- Safari crashes, relative's MacBook keys not working, Safari crashes AGAIN, Application Switcher not showing all the running apps, another security patch, etc. I'm glad I'm not one of those in these boards who are relying on iMovie for class projects.
    Boy, I hope people love their iPhones, because it seems like Mac users are feeling the pain for their pleasure.

    I'm having the same problem. I cannot get my iMac G4 (Leopard, iMovie HD 6) to recognize the tape in my Sony DCR-PC109 ("Cam").
    Before I upgraded to Leopard, and before I upgraded to iLife '08 (except iMovie which maxes out with iMovie HD 6 for non-Intel Macs), I did not have a problem.
    My situation might be slightly different in that I've connected the Cam base to the iMac via USB cable. The iMac recognizes the Cam Memory Stick. In fact, I was able to pull off a movie stored on the Memory Stick and add it to iPhoto. Turning the Cam on automatically launches iPhoto so the system recognizes it to some degree.
    The Cam LCD says it's in LCD mode and the Memory Stick icon is visible on the desktop. I launch iMovie HD 6 and toggle from Edit mode to Import (the cam icon) and nothing. I have an iSight installed so iMovie prompts me if I'd like to record with iSight.
    I was about to try and pull the video off using my Macbook Pro which has the iMovie '08 but found this other thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6216912&tstart=585
    The last post mentions something about iSquint. Will have to try it. Very frustrating. Looks like there are many people having the same issue with DCR-PC109, and maybe some other models/makes.

  • Importing miniDV from Sony DCR-TRV25 to iMovie '11?

    Have an old Sony DCR-TRV25 miniDV that I have been struggling to import wedding video.  Currently have a MBP (early '08 I believe) with OSX 10.6.8, with iMovie '11 (9.0.4).  I'm using the FW, connecting with a 4p to 6p adapter (there looks to be a 9pin port also, but never tried a 4p to 9p adapter).  I have yet to get the camera to show up for import when connecting, and have tried other previous searches to "force" the import.  I've read that Final Cut Pro X may work, but being only an amateur I'd prefer to not spend that much on software for this older camera (have a newer Sony which works well with iMovie).  Anyone have any other suggestions that might work?  I'd like to be able to import quality video if possible (also read the quality was poor on some who seemed to get it imported from similar Sony lines before and they reverted to either iMovie HD6 or Final Cut versions). 
    Would love to be able to simply import myself, but if no solution seems available will just resort to farming it out locally to some business if I can find it.

    Hi
    I've read that Final Cut Pro X may work, but being only an amateur I'd prefer to not spend that much on software for this older camera
    If it doesn't work with iMovie - then the chance is low that it might work with FinalCut Pro.

    • Camera connected to "charger" (mains adaptor) - not just on battery
    • Camera set in Playback mode - NOT Recording mode
    Does Your Camera work on another Mac ?

    if not then a few Mac’s has a PCM-CIA slot and there are FW-Cards that makes a FW-port this way
    else - NO SOLUTION
    Only option as I get it is either
    • Use another Mac to Capture material (to an external USB2 - Mac OS Extended formatted hard disk - or -
    • Change to another Camera that can be used with Your Mac (no there are no miniDV tape Cameras that can)
    • If Your Mac-Book has a PCM-CIA Card place - then there are FW-port-Cards and then
    You can import via this - but I've not seen this on more modern Macs. My PowerBook G4
    has one and this FW-Card-port works greatly.

    Hi Bengt W, I tried it all, but nothing worked. Your answer has been helpful insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos) to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before. Thank you. LKN 1935

    Thanks for all your suggestions. What I learned is that I had a software problem. I had something called "Nikon Transfer" on my Mac that was recognizing my Canon camcorder as a still camera and was preventing iMovie from working properly. After un-installing Nikon Transfer and doing a reboot, everything worked great.
    I never liked the Nikon Transfer software anyway--I guess I'll get a cheap card reader and use that to transfer photos in the future.

    What I exactly did.- put camera in play mode - open guide - choose connection guide - choose comp./printer (where to transfer movie to) - select connection.- i-link (on my camera) but equal to firewire - OK - choose HDV - choose NO for conversion of i.link.
    Settings are shown then (VCR HDV/DV.- HDV and i.link-conv..- OFF), press OK, OK, END.
    Switch camera off. Connect firewire cable to camera & Mac. Switch camera on, in play/edit mode.
    Open i-movie, choose import from camera. On screen below the camera connection is shown.- DV (HDV). Now you can import, automatically or manually.
    This worked perfectly for me. Took me 2 days to find out. Could not find any clear thread explaining what I had to do on the camera and the manual was not clear either.

  • IMovie '08 crashes when importing movies from SONY DCR-SR52

    Hi there! I am getting crazy because of this....iMovie keep crashing when iMovie creates thumbnails in order to import the movies from this crapy Sony DCR-SR52 (SD) camera. I removed Perian component from QT, started iMovie after I connected the camera...the same.....after 3-5 minutes iMovie crashes....
    Any idea? I dont want to use the MPEG Streamclip solution.
    Thanks a lot!

    For what it's worth, I have been having problems importing video from iPhoto to iDVD in the iLife'08 and also could not select video from iPhoto into iMovie '08 for an iDVD project. Apple technician took all my video clips out of iPhoto and put them on desktop. IDVD '08 is filled with problems, including green screens that replace transitions if using iPhoto photos and video to make slideshows. However, I somehow found in my applications file an "IMovie-previous version"('06) and used it to prepare a slideshow from iPhoto, using video clips from desktop, then "shared" to iDVD '08 tp pick a new theme and it burned perfectly.
    The iMovie version '06 is so much easier to work with and I can avoid the glitches of iMovie'08 that prevented me from importing video. By preparing movie, you can avoid using the transition window in iDVD'08 -- transitions that don't work. Forums on iDVD are filled with people having the same problem and we hope Apple will find a fix.
    If you have'08 and want to revert to '06, there is now an Apple software that will allow you to do that- just offered, to allow people who especially are not interested in YouTube and more interested in sharing with family and friends for TV viewing.

  • Capture(or import) from Sony DCR-SR75E to Adobe Premiere CS3

    Hello,
    I have an Adobe Premiere CS3 installed in my mac.
    I have used it with my Sony Fx-1 perfectly.
    I purchased an new sony dcr-sr75e handycam and have problem capturing or importing.
    When I connect the camera to the computer, I don't open capture, and when I try to import the mpg files, I only get the video of the files and I don't get the audio, and the video is imported very low quality. Can you please help me?
    Thanks in advance,
    Levent 

    Copy the files from the camera to your PC then import them into Pro. Pro only captures through firewire.
    If the audio contains ac3 copy the ad2ac3dec.dll file from Encore in Program Files and paste this in the root of Pro CS3.
    Reimport all files or start a new project.

  • How can I import a movie from sony DCR trv340 tape to Macbook Pro?

    I have started using iMovie, I know it's been there quite a while, and I am trying to imort from a tape using Sony DCR-TRV340. I can import tapes created on the TRV340 but other tapes that were created on a different Sony device, from back in late 1980's will not load. When I pllay them on the camcorder they appear and I can watch them in iMove but they will not record. It says NO DATA FROM DEVICE. Is there a way to fix that or a setting that needs to be changed?
    Any hel would be appreciated.

    A dual mode camcorder with both a photo camera and camcorder function.
    While Apple doesn't seem to list these as compatible, have you tried connecting with a firewire cable, and turning on iMovie and seeing if it recognizes your camcorder?
    Here is Apple's commentary on trying to get a camcorder to work:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1059#2
    What about contacting Samsung, often companies have a knowledge base.
    I know this isn't what you were asking, but if you have something recorded you absolutely must have, I have a hunch a friend with an older windows computer might be able to get it downloaded, then you could transfer it by thumbdrive to imovie.
    Just a thought.

  • Importing from sony dcr-dvd301

    I am trying to help a friend import video from a sony dvd handycam. I know that the video has to be converted for use in iMovie, but the problem is getting the video off the camera to convert it. I have all the conversion software (freeware)
    The camera has a USB connection. The video file is not even in .VOB format.
    It is .VRO.
    From all that I have read, this camera is obviously not mac compatable (per sony). Just wondering if any guru's out there that may know a way.....
    Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    http://danslagle.com/mac/iMovie/tips_tricks/6018.shtml
    connecting the camera via usb could probably allow to mount it (=you see a "new" drive in finder); you need to "finalize" the dvd in camcorder/read manual!
    to my knowledge, Streamclipper is able to convert such stuff....
    good luck!
    besides, as a German I have to correct your profile: it is "Porsche" not "Porshe", as in "schuga"...... ;-)))

  • Import error from Sony DCR-SR57

    I just bought a Sony DCR-SR57, which is a HDD camcorder.
    Everytime I want to import a movie into iMovie it has an error, without saying what exactly the error is.
    Another way to put the movies on my computer is by using the Sony as an external HDD, but then there's no sound, and also horizontal stripes in movies with a lot of movements.
    Does anyone has the same problem?
    Does anyone have solutions?
    Thanks in advance!

    My camcorder is not on the list... Does it mean it isn't supported by iMovie? I hope not, because I paid 400 euros for it! :-S
    There's really no bigger discription for the Import Steps. It goes like this:
    1. I connect the camera with USB.
    2. I open iMovie '09.
    3. I see on my desktop a volume appear wich is my camcorder. At the same time Import Window in iMovie '09 opens.
    4. I leave all the default settings (automatic) and I hit 'Import all'.
    5. I see the window, I click ok.
    6. It starts importing (white line which symbolises progress).
    7. When the line (and the import) is completed, it is replaced with the message 'Error' indicated in red.
    8. A dialog box appears which says: "iMovie can't import the fragment of your camera. Click on 'Archive everything' if you want to put a backup of the files on your hard disk".
    9. That's it.
    Please note that my iMovie runs in Dutch, so the translations of the text in the dialogue box and stuff might differ from the real English text.

  • Poor quality when importing from sony dcr-sr58

    Dear All
    I've got a sony dcr-sr58e video camera, and for ages the quality has been poor, once i've, a) imported the footage from the camera into imovie then b) from there to idvd then c) watching it back on a tv
    I thought it was just me being fussy, but friends and colleagues have noticed that its quality is comparable with an old vhs video camera!
    I put all the settings to the max (high quality etc....)on the camera but to no effect, and have checked the settings on imovie
    The sony support have stated that its probably a problem with imovie (which it doesn't seem to be)
    Fot the record i'm running OSX 10.6.8  with imovie version 9.0.4
    If anyone else has had a similar problem and solve dit i'd be very grateful to hear
    Thanks
    Kelly

    Hello kellyfromkenley, Depending on how you move the video or share the video from iMovie to iDVD it can make a big difference. One way is to go to the Share Menu > Share to iDVD. But the better is to Share to Media Browser instead. Try this:
    Go back to iMovie and open your Project in Project Library.
    Go to Share Menu > Share to Media Browser
    Choose the Large size and let it run until it finishes
    Quit iMovie and open iDVD.
    In iDVD click on the Media Button, then click on the Movies button and look for your project under the iMovie star icon in the Media Browser itself.
    Drag that project icon into the iDVD project window and burn another disk
    I think you'll see an increase in the visual quality using this method.
    The reason this has an effect on the visual quality is there's a whole different set of operations performed on the video when you first Share to Media Browser. The side effect of those changes in steps is a much better looking DVD from your iMovie project.

  • PE9 ProjectPreset for Mini DVD VOB files from Sony DCR-DVD308

    I am new to PE9 and I am having trouble bringing in widescreen video from finalized mini-DVDs that are generated by my Sony DCR-DVD 308 into widescreen format.  The video on the mini-DVD is widescreen but when I bring it into PE9, it opens a dialog box for the video importer, I get the mismatch warning and it brings it in as a standard aspect ratio video.  I have tried numerous different project presets including "NTSC-Hard Disk, Flash Memory Camcorders like Sony DCR" but to no avail.  The video that comes in is always standard aspect ratio.  What am I doing wrong?

    I ended up going back to the Sony program that came with the camera and coverted out the files to MPEG using that software first, and then brought them into PE9 with success.  The video quality is a little better too.  Thanks for the help.

  • Can't import from Sony DCR-SR200 camcorder

    Just upgraded to iMovie 08 as I was told my Sony DCR-SR200 was supported at the Apple Store. Also see it listed as a supported camcorder on Apple's support site. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong?
    The HDD of the camera comes up on the desktop as a disk drive but iMovie says a it does not detect a connected camcorder. I can even try to manually import the files and again, iMovie see the HDD as a mounted disk but the MPEG-2 file are grayed out and can't be imported -- even though the dialog box states that it supports MPEG-2 files. I've tried various combinations of when I connect the camera -- before I start iMovie, after, etc but nothing seems to work.
    I'm running a dual 2GHz PowerPC G5 with Mac OS 10.4.11. Using USB to connect the camcorder.
    - Connectless in Seattle

    Exactly. That's what we had to do before we were promised iMovie '08 would solve the problem! I've seen someone say it works with the dcr-sr300, which is the same camera, only with a bigger harddrive.

    A very strange thing just happened. While I was writing the first post, I was downloading and installing mpeg-streamclip, and I let it start to convert my movies. Simultaneously, in the background, iMovie suddenly recognized my camera(?), with all the thumbnails appearing in the lower window. mpeg-streamclip was not even done converting the movies, but in iMovie, it looked as though all the movies were ready to be imported. Also, before mpeg-streamclip started the conversion, it asked for the Quicktime plugin, which I have backed up somewhere, but did not bother to install. I proceeded to convert anyway, although it alerted me that it needed to fix timecode breaks. I guessed it would be fine to say OK to that.
    Could it be that I simply did not give iMovie enough TIME to recognize the camera.
    Since I don't know what helped, I suggest doing exactly what I did. Try downloading mpeg-streamclip from the squared5 website mentioned above, have iMovie running and click on the first "computer" button on the camera's screen to connect to the computer. I had to wait about 5 minutes. I will try this again.
    Well, you seem to need to give a 2004 2.5 GHz G5 about 5 minutes to recognize your camera. Everything comes to him who waits. I'm still not sure whether this happened simply because I had mpeg-streamclip installed, or if I never waited long enough before to let iMovie recognize my camera.
    It'd be nice if someone knowledgeable solved the mystery.

  • Capturing from Sony DCR in Premiere Elements 13 not possible?

    Premiere Elements does not find the device (SONY DCR-TRV120E PAL), although it is recognized in "Devices and Printers" as "AV/C Subunit / Sony DV Camcorder" (WIN 7) and the device is also recognized and capturing correctly under MS Movie Maker.        
    Thanks for any helpful advice!
