  Sony HDR XR550V

  Posted by Doug Ellis on May 12, 2010 at 7:21 am

  I’m considering buying the Sony HDR XR550v camcorder. Will it work well with Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 9.0? Thanks for your advice.

  I am using the XR500V with Movie Studio platinum 9.0b with no problems (my OS is Win 7 64 bit). As you probably know, the XR500V is the same as the XR550V except it has a smaller hard drive.

  You might want to go to the Sony Creative Software Movie Studio forum and look around. There is a work-around you need to do to avoid crashes when rendering AVCHD in Movie Studio. Search on “CFFExplorer” if you are using a 64 bit OS. If you are using a 32 bit OS, also search on BCDEdit (32 bit OS’s need two work-arounds).

  I just noticed that you said you have the XR550V. I was thinking of the XR520V when I said it was the same as my XR500V except for the hard disk size. I see now that the XR550V is a newer model than the 500/520, so my comments may not apply. Sorry.
