  • AVCHD video unusable in FCP

    Posted by Dave (gio) Giordano on April 16, 2011 at 10:39 pm

    Hi Y’all,

    I shot some footage on a Lumix FZ35 which is AVCHD. When I play it or import it into FCP or imovie it plays very fast and the sound is way off. It shows as being a .mov file so it should work fine.

    I tried to convert it using Evom but the converter would not recognize it. I tried to watch it using VLS and it said that it does not support the icod format. I have never heard of this format.

    Last night I recorded from this camera and the video works fine. I have no idea what happened for the video to be recorded this way. Any suggestions on what I can do to make it usable. I’m using Mac and have never had problems like this before.

    Much Thanks,

    Gio

    Hi Gio,

    I’d be willing to bet that you would have a better chance of getting an answer if you posted this question on a FCP forum. Most of us here would probably just advise you to switch to Premiere Pro, especially since it doesn’t seem to have any problems with footage from a Lumix FZ35.
