  Reading long Canon C100 files on Adobe Premiere CS6

  Posted by Alex Newton on May 5, 2015 at 2:41 pm

  Hi all,

  Does Premiere CS6 struggle to read long files?

  I have previously shot only short clips (max a minute long) on my Canon C100 and Premiere has read them without trouble. Recently, however, I shot some interviews on my C100 with takes as long as one hour with no cuts. I’m loading these into Premiere and it is taking an age to read them. Eventually, once that clip has been imported and conformed I can read it, but it won’t always play back for that long before the visual becomes slow and choppy (the audio is often fine).

  Any thoughts? Like I say, short clips aren’t a problem. (I don’t have Data Import Utility as I can’t download it from the Japanese website – I don’t know if that would be of use)

  Thanks,

  Alex

  And your hardware, including media drive(s), is precisely what?

  And, how much free space do you have on the above mentioned drive(s).

  Hi David,

  Thanks for getting back to me.

  Processor: 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

  Memory: 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3

  Hard drive space: 200GB plus

  My render files are being saved to an external USB 3 hard drive (the footage is located here too)

  Like I say, small files are being read without issue.

  Alex
