  Editing in H.264

  Posted by Brian Baldomero on October 15, 2012 at 9:18 pm

  Hello,

  I’ve been making the switch from FCP7/Motion to Adobe products. I’ve been told PPro can edit in H.264. I’ve been doing that relatively just fine with no noticable loss in quality. I was wondering if AE can edit in H.264 or is it recommended to convert the footage to a better readable format like ProRes422?

  I’ve also made the switch from FCP7 to the Adobe Suite and I’ve been running with the ‘program edits footage natively’ feature without much thought to coding, especially with AE.

  I work with DSLR footage a lot, and I’m very interested in how the H.264 footage slows the program down. What would you suggest coding the H.264 footage in to for AE?
