  • Making a 1 Single clip out of Multiple MP4 clip my camera makes?

    Posted by Don Cobble on July 28, 2014 at 9:48 pm

    1 of my My Cameras (Panasonic) makes multiple MP4 files during a recording, though the shot is a lecture and unbroken. I also have a sony EX 1 that does the same. But when I import my EX1 MP4’s Adobe makes them one contiguous file. My Panasonic MP4s remain individual. Is there a way to deal with this as one file? BUT I need the audio wave to show for editing. I made a sequence with the files and brought it in to my Master Sequence, great for video clip, but then I do not have an audio Wave? I need the wave for editing what I am doing?
    Any Help Please?
    Thank You
    Don

    There doesn’t appear to be any one click workflow. You will probably need to export the sequence; this will create new media that you can import and replace.

    Proper import methods will typically provide the result you are looking for.

    Copy the ENTIRE contents of the memory card directly to your hard drive (no utility/conversion software). Important to have all folder and files, not just the “video clips”.

    In Premiere, don’t use “File > Import” – rather, use the Media Browser. This should bring in the group of clips from one long recording as a single, continuous clip for editing.

    Hope this does it for you

    Thanks
