CS6 here… Yeah, It was new for me too! It started happening when my company changed the computer. But it was real! and it was a pain.

Ha! Thanks for your comment Ian! Actually, while I was doing research about this I read a lot of your comments and it was very helpful at the moment! so thanks!

I know that “in theory” it should take EX .mp4 and .mxfs, but in my case (and many others I found around forums) for some reason it doesn’t. I just found a solution but I’m not exactly sure whats the problem.

Thanks again

YES! THERE IS A SOLUTION! (at least worked for me…)

After weeks of research about how to properly import MP4 files (from a SONY EX3) and MXF files (from a C300) in PREMIERE I finally found a solution that DID WORK.

You need to install the Calibrated{Q} MXF or MP4 Importer (depending on what you need) and the Calibrated{Q} XD Decode. BOTH.

You can download a demo version (for both, MAC and PC) and try them. They are not free but it totally worth it.

Calibrated{Q} XD Decode

Calibrated{Q} MXF Import
https://www.calibratedsoftware.com/MXFImport_Mac.asp

Calibrated{Q} MP4 Import
https://www.calibratedsoftware.com/MP4EXImport_Mac.asp

If you dont feel like paying or in case of emergency, we can also get them for free here:

I was also having problems (PC) with gamma shift on both MP4 and MXF files during Premiere playback. That was also fixed 🙂

Im so happy I found this solution!! Hope it works for you!!

Cheers!

MORE INFO:

I tried other formats like AVI, H24 and MP4. They all work perfectly.

I also noticed that with the MXF files are the only ones where I dont get any color line on the Work Area Bar. If I try to render it Premiere will just play it normally.

Hey there!

Im having the same problem with CS6. Ive tried many things. Im pretty sure is not about hardware; I’ve worked with XML files from a C300 and MP4 and everything works fine, but if I drop a .MOV I get this very annoying lag on the playback.

Have you found any solution?

Thanks!!!
