thanks a bunch! setting the in and out points worked. For some reason, it still wouldn’t render when I had the work area bar on…but oh well, it worked the other way, so thanks again!

thank for the replies, I was out of town for the weekend, so I hope somebody is still following this thread. I downloaded files at the link you sent, (but I still dont have finalcut so I dont think those are going to work) I also went to avid and downloaded their codec file that includes DNxHD. I’m not sure if there’s another step after that, but I’m still not seeing either of those in the transcode options in prelude. Remember I’m totally ignorant to all of this, so if there was something I was supposed to do after downloading and installing the codecs, let me know 🙂

I copied the contents of my card onto my hard drive. then in prelude I went to ingest, and composed the path to the avchd folder and opened up the first. mts file just to test it out. do you know if I should be opening it differently?
-
Right, so back full circle… I can’t get prelude to work. There are no transcode options for any of those formats. In fact there are only audio options for transcoding, see here.

Thanks for the tips, I seriously searched for like four hours yesterday for a sollution. So there’s no free option huh? I spent a ton of money on this stuff already, I guess I could spend a little more to get it to work, but I was hoping that gopro cineform thing downloaded the codecs, or even one of those avid codecs would work.
you dont happen to know if imovie has the prores codecs do you? I have that! haha.
-
anything guys? seemed like some of you knew how to do this up until this point.
-
sorry if this is an obvious question, I’m not at my computer right now, but I just did a search on my phone, and a lot of people posted that cineform isn’t an export option in prelude. is there some other step I have to take to accomplish this?

Ok, I was able to enable CUDA for my graphics card, and I imported some .mts files just to experiment. Looks like its going to work smooth! But just for comparison purposes, I’d like to play around with cineform a little too, just to see if I like it better. I downloaded “cineform studio”, but I dont know how to use the codecs from it. When I run the program, I choose “import”, but for some reason my AVCHD files are grayed out, (both on my hard drive and with the camera plugged in) How do I convert the files?

my processor is an i7! haha my auto correct changed it to “u haul ” for some reason. but thanks for the tips, ill try to find out if I can use CUDA with my card too

thanks! that was very helpful. I suppose I wouldn’t mind editing natively if my computer can handle it. I maxed out the RAM, (32 gb) , it has an U-Haul processor, but I don’t think the graphics card can use CUDA. (It wasn’t highlighted in the preset settings) I believe the card is an nvidia geforce 680. in your opinion can this computer handle the AVCHD natively?
