  • Can Premiere and Final Cut share 1080i files?

    Posted by Chris Varner on May 20, 2009 at 4:30 pm

    Captured 1080i files in Premiere. Trying to share them with an FCP editor. FCP won’t play them. Is this even possible and is there anything the FCP guy can do to use my files?

    HDV. mpegs. Apparently FCP can’t edit mpegs. Sweet.

    FCP likes Quicktime and just about nothing else. If the HDV files were captured as Apple QT via FCP, then Premiere Pro could read it, but not the other way around. If you really need to interact with FCP for this project but can’t recapture, you could use the adobe media encoder to create Apple compatible files (maybe DV100) and then create a Premiere Pro preset that will also read them.

    I should amend that – PPeo on a PC can not see Apple QT HDV. On a MAc I guess it would – but then on a Mac you’d have captured it as a QT HDV anyway.
