Activity Forums VEGAS Pro AVCHD Freeze-up

  • AVCHD Freeze-up

    Posted by Eco Huntington on August 21, 2011 at 9:25 pm

    I have Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 8.0d(up-to-date) running on Win 7 x86-64.
    I recently acquired a Panasonic HDC-TM700.
    My video is shot in MPEG-4 AVC/H.264(AVCHD) | 1920×1080 | 60i | 17Mbps.

    When I simply click on one of these files, whether in the Explorer or in the Import dialogue, it immediately freezes the entire program.

    Any ideas appreciated. Thank You.

    You haven’t provided any information about your PC, but I would bet on running out of memory and your pagefile is getting hammered.

    You haven’t said what your computer specs are yet. By the way, you will love that camera. I have one as well as the 3D HDC-SDT750, take the 3D lense off and it’s the same as the TM700 but you need a flash card, no internal memory. I shoot 1080 60p and can edit even with a fast dual core laptop if I had to, but It doesn’t freeze and lock up the program. You can get .mts and .m2ts files from your camera, depending weather you use the included software to get the video, or connected the cam with USB and saw it like a drive, and get the files off that way. I would try the otherway than your doing and see if it helps. Are your video very long? Very large files can cause this problem with slower computers.

    you may love your camera. what will be the use of that hot affection when you would simultaneously hate the avchd format. but some are happy with it. i wish you could enlist that group. good luck, man…
