ok i just brought a canon hf-11 FULL HD camcorder (for stunting vids)but all the editing programs i have and the one that came with it dont seem to work with the file types


does anyone know how to convert .MTS files to avi or something that adobe premiere cs3 will recognize or can anyone recommend an editing program that will work with it

 

final cut pro or adobe premire...


i run adobe CS4... ****'s

 

if you looking to just cut up footage and put stuff on youtube windows movie maker will do the trick.

 

sony vegas platinum

 

ive got cs3 and the ****** wont recognize the .mts file the hd cam is spitting out

 

get a dazzle and import it right into adobe from the camera or use firewire if you got ports for it

 

whats a dazzle?

lots of file converters out there too... look on adobe's site for plug in's to accept that file type. I know cs4 will take just about everything

 

you have a camera that records to the avchd format...a relatively new format as far as cameras go...and yes, a pain in the butt to edit with...

do a search for an avchd conversion software like this one...(I don't know if that one is any good, just happened to be the first thing that came up in google)...

on top of that, I hope you have an editing system that is up to snuff because these files will beat it like a nickel *****... ideally quad core processors with minimum 6gb of ram on either a 64bit system or a mac on steriods...

as I am reading as well, Premiere CS4 does import native .MTS files so if you upgrade to CS4 you won't even need a converter I think... but the files will still be a bitch to work with...


Ross, you should see what we are doing this year!! Hit me up buddy, I have some new super secret sneaky footage from the new cams to show you, and the project is sick!

 

thanks for the tips and hints chris, i was going to pm you about this if you didnt reply my computer is loaded like a mo fo with some major fruit and yeah your right the hd files (avchd) are massive (i was having probs with the files shaking when i played them when the cam was set to mxp)........... but i guess you get that when you want some huge quality

do you work with these type of files?

coz the only program that ive downloaded (ive downloaded 6 editing programs so far) thats even accepted the files has been what t-dubby suggested ....................... ...ss is looking out for me tho

 

bumpy bump

 

im excited

 

I got cs4 and it supports the avchd formats

 

sweet

im looking farward to it

i never rreally started to learn cs3 , is the cs4 version easy to learn?

 

well I've only been using premiere and photoshop so I havent noticed much of a difference. Few small changes here and there but it should be about the same

 

i tell you what, when you buy a $1800 HD cam the editing program it comes will should be ******* wicked ,not some crappy shitty thing that only lets you edit the lenght of the clips !

 

lol thats how it goes, thank goodness for torrents

 

hahaha i know ive downloaded 6 full editing programs since the 13th trying to find one that will work

 

where do you download these editing programs from. i can always use some new ones for free.
