P2 Card reader error
Good Day, I am a producer for a Govt. braodcasting channel and we are evaluating Adobe Premiere Pro as our new NLE.
We shoot on Panasonic P2 and import via P2 card reader AJ-PCD20 but I am having a problem getting the program to recognise the P2 card reader, I have updated the reader to accept 16 gig cards but I still get an error in the Premiere saying the format is not supported, as we only have 26 days on this trial I would be nice to get some input on this problem, thank you.Tristen

P2 support began with the 3.1 (not 3.01) update for Premiere. If you have a trial version, you may not be able to update, but try.
I thought that transferring data from media cards to PC would be a Windows copy/paste function and not involve the NLE. -
Thanks for your response, I also found that out from reading the forums and info yesterday, I tried the copy and paste thing it also failed to recognize the MXF file.
We want a full on test from start to finish so we can evaluate it’s performance in our production environment and see if it’s a worthwhile purchase, I contacted Adobe to see if there is a work around so far no joy. -
dark4une,
I’ve been using the P2 cards for a month or so
and the 3.1 version of PPro works great with P2
data. I just copy it from the CONTENTs file from
the P2 card to my second HD. Then just import the
files in the VIDEO directory. PPro attaches the
audio automatically(all 4 channels).
After Effect doesn’t suppport P2 data yet, but
according to Adobe it is supposed to in the next
update. Right now, I just render an uncompressed
file for us with AE.
The only other slight bother is that windows
media player doesn’t support the 960×720 PAR=1.333
so when I play the rendered media(from AE or
Cinema 4D) using those specs the aspect ratio is
wrong. Viewing in PPro is just fine.Hope this helps… Can’t complain about the speed
either.MBW
