MPEG Stream Errors with .MT2/HDV
I posted this up on the Adobe user forum as well:
System:
MacBook Pro
OS X (all updates)
2.5ghz/4GB Ram/200GB 7200rpm HDD
Production and Design PremiumCamera:
Sony HVR-Z7U recording 1080i at any frame rate.I’m having a hell of a time with HDV files: both .M2T files pulled from my CF card and the MPEG files captured from tape. The more editing I do, the more MPEG stream errors I receive. It makes any project unusable.
I’ve worked with the presets, custom settings and alternate settings. The only workaround I’ve found is to convert everything via MPEGStreamclip and work under a DVCPROHD preset to avoid any use of Premier’s MPEG rendering.
Any thoughts? It’s driving me nuts and this workflow is way too time-consuming for my tastes. I’ve been scouring the web for months and haven’t found anyone with my setup and my issues…
…thoughts??

Hey Jay,
Did you manage to find any solution to this?
I’m experiencing similar problems capturing from my newly purchased Sony GV-HD700 deck getting at least one MPEG stream error for every clip I capture. I’m pretty much at the point of doing the project through Avid instead, how did the MPEGStreamclip solution manage, was their any compromise on the image quality after running the footage through this?
Many Thanks

Yes actually, I did. I’m still using MPEG Streamclip. It works well. The quality is just fine because you identify what codec you want to encode with it. In my case, I encode Quicktime files using Avid’s DNxHD codec which you can download for free from their site. I have other codecs installed like Blackmagic’s stuff as well as others, but Avid’s works great for what I need. HTH.
