1. Re: CS4: Converting AVCHD to DV-AVI Type II - what's your tool / approach?

Did you look at Jeff Bellune's tutorials ? Maybe one would suit you...

In other words, if I dropped an .mts file on a timeline in Premiere and then exported it to AVI / NTSC DV Widescreen (or some other such setting), would this give me the same results, i.e. a native DV-AVI Type II file?
-------------------------
That could work OK...and you can choose uncompressed if you want better quality AVI...but file will be bigger

Christopher Duncan Jul 5, 2010 7:27 PM (in response to able123)Hi, Rod.
Good stuff, appreciate the link.
While it would be nice if I could find a suitable program to just batch convert the files, I don't seem to be having much luck on that front. It's a bit more of a workflow hassle to step it through Premiere -> Media Encoder in order to get the initial raw SD footage that I want to edit, but on the bright side it does seem to be the path of maximum control in terms of the quality of files I end up with for editing. So maybe that's the way to go.
Thanks, man.
Chris

Excellent suggestion. Can I borrow your checkbook for a moment? ;-)

I once saw a bumper sticker that said, "A boat is a whole in the water, into which you pour money."
I'm sure there's an analogy for computers in there somewhere.

Never type until you've consumed a sufficient quantity of caffiene.
