Exporting Sequence to H.264. AVCHD footage.
I am having big problems exporting a sequence to H.264. I will try and provide all the information. Please let me know if I have missed something.
Problem:
The sequence will not export cleanly. I have tried H.264, MPG 2 and MOV files none works. My preferred output would be H.264. I have exported files in this format before (taken on the same camera) without any trouble but this time there are jumps in the video (i.e. the picture jerks for a fraction of a second) and/or massive distortion of the whole image. The problem is not present when viewing the sequence.Should I reinstall?
Having read lots of other posts (but none specifically about this) I’m wondering if I’ve just totally wasted my money – a lot of my money – and I need to cut my losses and get final cut studio.
I would really appreciate help with this.

Well, you said it worked before, so what’s changed since the last time it worked? Add any new software or updates? A quicktime update maybe?
I do AVCHD to H.264 on a regular basis for Sony and I’ve never had a problem. But I am on a PC.
Not sure FCP does ACVHD at all – or if it does it has to be converted to quicktime first – same with P2 and just about everything.

Did you solve it? can you share how?

Sorry Florencia I was not able to solve it. I was going so nuts with it I went out and bought FCP and re-edited the video on that…annoying
