The primary editing software I use is Premiere Pro CS5 for Windows 7. I am not looking to change or reincode the AVCHD files, just to import or “ingest” them so that they can be viewed and edited with any compatible software. Thanks you.

Jordan,
Does that solve the issue of the outputs being headphone and not line level?

Ty,
I am trying to transfer cassette tapes to digital format.
-
The only cassette player I have access to is a portable player, similar to a Sony Walkman (if you remember those), but made by Panasonic. It has a 1/8″ stereo headphone jack. The Marantz recorder has XLR inputs and a digital input, but I was looking to use the 1/8″ line in.

Thanks for the tip on the azimuth. I might look for a cassette player that has an adjustible azimuth. You mentioned mono compatibility in connection with azimuth. Why is that.
As far as the levels go, for a given aggregate level, is it better to have have the cassette low and the recorder high, or the other way around?
And yes, I have lots of cassettes. Some of them have pretty irreplaceable stuff. Dialogue, recorded on so so equipment to begin with.

Ok, thanks Todd. I’ll install Apple Quicktime. How about Real. Is that the best one can do for that codec?
-
I found something called K-Lite codec pack at https://www.codecguide.com. Is that any good?

Sometimes I’m just scanning the video or just listening to audio and don’t want to be interrupted when I also check email or something.. What do you mean push the button twice?

Thanks Ann. Ideally, I would rather not install Quicktime. qttask.exe cannot be disabled via the control panel. It runs in the background unless you edit the Windows 7 system registry. It’s a very heavy-handed application. I don’t recall whether it was AC3–I’ll check when I get back home–but Quicktimes does mess up one type of audio file that comes off of DVDs. Are you suggesting that that codec can be downloaded and installed separately? In any event, I hate having to deal with a bunch of players vying for my approval, so if I can limit it to Windows Media Player I would be happier. If it’s not possible to decode Quicktime movies without installing the whole application so be it, I just want to be sure. Same goes for Real. Thanks!

What is the AC3 filter codec?
So Quicktime provides the best codecs for its files?
