1. Re: Using PPRO 2.0 with M2V files (MPEG2)
John T Smith Feb 23, 2010 8:38 AM (in response to moonplace)Go to my notes http://www.pacifier.com/~jtsmith/ADOBE.HTM and click the link about editing compressed files to find out why they do not edit well, if at all
Rendering to be able to edit is required... or convert to DV AVI type 2 with 48khz sound

Thanks, It looks if it is not so easy to edit M2V files.This is the first (and hopely the last) one.
I did download a program to convert to AVI, but it delivers AVI conversion on which PPRO says that it doesn't know the used conversion codec or so. (Any Video Converter). As I understand from your page that can easely be the case because of various reasons.
I think I give up and let it be, it is not of that important. I forgot to archive the edited AVI clip and the only one was left on the system was the M2V file. So I thought to bring this with PPRO on DV tape just to archive, in stead of the normally archived AVI one. Just in case.
Best regards
Chris

Hale.ru Mar 6, 2010 4:57 PM (in response to moonplace)sorry... at night misread m2v as d2v.
The thing that edit MPEG data without transcoding at all is not premiere as it is related to GOPs. DV doesn't have GOPs and is easy to pass for direct editing.
The thing that does edit MPEG 1/2 is Womble.
Use the womble before Encore to join MPEG scenes in one datafile as the Encore can't join them without creating extra cell (that results in various bugs in navigation)
P.S.
Do not import MPEG data directly to Premiere. This is not good.
Use AVISYNTH+DgMPEGDec+any of thousands of filters+PremiereAVSPlugin 1.5
AVISYNTH doesn't need transcoding and data storing - is acts as completely virtual source controlled by short (or advanced, as you wish) script program.
It can be as short as one string, but it can give more freedom, quality and free space then direct input of transcoded material.
