Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro transfer a single AVCHDclip

  • transfer a single AVCHDclip

    Posted by Fabrizio D’agnano on October 9, 2012 at 9:46 pm

    Hello.
    I downloaded a tryout version of Premiere Pro, in order to evaluate if it will be my next editing SW as my FCP7 is aging and the FCPX I bought and tried for a while does not seem to fit my workflow. There’s one thing I was not able to find so far on the user manual or searching the forum: is there a way to transfer a single AVCHD clip from a card without keeping the whole card, like I used to do in “log and transfer”? I saw I can import a clip in the project from the AVCHD card or a copy of it stored on one of the drives, but what do I have to do if I don’t want to keep the whole recorded card or copy and just need to keep one clip?
    Thanks

    Thank you Stefan, but it does not seem to work. Maybe I’m doing something wrong, but I can’t find the real clip, that’s what I’d like to do. If I search the AVCHD structure, I don’t have a single .mov file I can drag, copy, move or whatever. I can see a preview of the file only inside a software. Now if I import one of the clips, Premiere seems to work on the original clip inside the AVCHD structure. Now if I erase the card copy or eject the card itself I don’t have the clip anymore. I was asking if there was a way to create a single clip in one step from the AVCHD structure that is independent from the structure itself, like it is when I log and transfer a clip in FCP7 creating an independent .mov. The .mts file alone does not seem to show.
    Thank you
