  • Capture Problems with Sony NEX VG10

    For some reason premiere cannot see this cam in the capture window.
    I’m on a MacBook Pro running CS5.

    My capture settings are AVCHD 1080p 25p.

    Final cut had no problems at all on the same machine

    I’m fairly new to Premiere so any help would be great.

    Thanks
    Peter

    Gday Peter,

    This camera doesn’t do ingest via capture and the sequence is irrelevant to the media you plan to capture from tape or import from tapeless.

    You need to get the recorded video’s complete folder structure onto a Hard Drive, that is outside of PPro workflow.

    The camera itself doesn’t talk with PPro like it does with FCP as there is no need to transcode to another file. PPro uses the original folder structure to edit the video/audio saving time to start editing and harddrive space.

    Once you get the files onto a harddrive, navigate the Browser panel to the files and PPro should recognize the structure as AVCHD and simply show a listing of clip icons for you to drag and drop into the project panel.

    It’s a different process – different doesn’t mean worse, just different. 🙂

    Cheers JB

    Jon,

    Thanks for the reply.

    Understood.
    In fact I’d already done that but was under the impression it was better to transcode those MTS files for editing.
    I found they were a bit stuttery.

    I, like many others, am jumping ship from FCP too!

    Thanks again

    Depending on the guts of your MBP you AVCHD can be very heavy on the processor. You might see better performance if you drop the playback quality by right clicking in the program (and source too as a separate setting – doesn’t take from the program settings) window and select Playback Reduce it to say 1/4 and go up form there.

    Core2Duo might not be beefy enough for a great AVCHD experience.
