File Sizes/Storage

[David Lord]

Thanks, yeah I do copy the folders directly, I don’t even think there’s an option to drag individual clips. I just see a folder named “AVCHD”, so I copy and paste.

I’ll try using the media browser instead of import file when I get home and I’ll let you know how it goes.

Be sure to copy ALL folders on the card, not just video clip folder, and to use Media Browser for import. Don’t know why exactly it makes a difference, but it does.

Thanks

Hey, I finally got around to testing out your method of importing, I gotta say it improved the performance drastically. Thank you for the tips. It could have been storing the files on a different hard drive than my operating system, using the media browser, or all of the above, but the AVCHD files worked great.

I wish I would have known this for the last two projects I worked on, could’ve saved me a ton of hassle, not to mention 30 bucks for the software I bought to convert the files, haha. But thanks again!

Glad to hear it all worked out. Happy editing!
