1. Re: Importing HDV footage - seems you don't want to use Premiere (?)
Jim_Simon Feb 11, 2008 8:06 AM (in response to (David_Zeno))You can safely delete the Premiere captures if you're not going to use them. A common program for HDV capture is HDVSplit. -
2. Re: Importing HDV footage - seems you don't want to use Premiere (?)
mickkeay Feb 11, 2008 11:56 PM (in response to (David_Zeno))I am not so sure the problem is always restricted to CS3 captured footage. I convert from AVCHD to HDV (usually using Elecard, or Procoder etc) and find that if I stitch the output into a longish single HDV file then although that hdv file plays ok in a player, and is in sync - it loses sync when imported into PP CS3 - but is OK in other NLEs (well Vegas) Seems to me that CS3 cannot hold sync if (some) hdv clips are simply longish. Bad bug!- although seems it's being worked on according to similar threads -

(Brian_Parchim) Feb 13, 2008 2:22 PM (in response to (David_Zeno))We use the Canon XL-H1 and digitize HDV footage into Premiere using the Firewire out of the camera. The digitized file is an AVI and all works great, no sync issues and we can edit it with no problem. -

mickkeay Feb 13, 2008 2:36 PM (in response to (David_Zeno))Odd isn't it? I have also (using Vegas) stitched together a bunch of AVCHD files into a long single 50mins single HDV file and it is also just fine in PP. I think that sometimes a glitch appears in the video which throws out sync bigtime. Are you capturing a single file? How long? -

Jim_Simon Feb 13, 2008 2:43 PM (in response to (David_Zeno))Brian,
If the file captured by the Canon is an AVI, it's a DV file, not HDV. That would explain the lack of issues. -

(Brian_Parchim) Feb 14, 2008 7:11 AM (in response to (David_Zeno))Jim,
The AVI that is captured in the HDV project is a HDV 1440x1080 clip, not a DV clip. -
7. Re: Importing HDV footage - seems you don't want to use Premiere (?)
Jim_Simon Feb 14, 2008 8:26 AM (in response to (David_Zeno))If it were HDV captured by Premiere, it would not have an AVI extension. -

(Brian_Parchim) Feb 14, 2008 8:40 AM (in response to (David_Zeno))What extension should it have? -
9. Re: Importing HDV footage - seems you don't want to use Premiere (?)
Jim_Simon Feb 14, 2008 8:41 AM (in response to (David_Zeno))HDV clips captured by Premiere will be M2V I believe. -
10. Re: Importing HDV footage - seems you don't want to use Premiere (?)
Jeron Coolman Feb 14, 2008 5:49 PM (in response to (David_Zeno))It has been a while since I used Premiere to capture HDV (the HDV capture tool has been broken since 3.0 was released), but I'm pretty sure the extension of the files were .mpeg -
11. Re: Importing HDV footage - seems you don't want to use Premiere (?)
(David_Zeno) Feb 14, 2008 5:57 PM (in response to (David_Zeno))I've did this last week with 3 different miniDV tapes @ HDV setting, and Premiere captures, and outputs as a .mpeg file ( hdv format, 1440x 1080 ), it will not capture to any other format. -
12. Re: Importing HDV footage - seems you don't want to use Premiere (?)
Jim_Simon Feb 14, 2008 8:11 PM (in response to (David_Zeno))OK. My mistake. Still, .mpeg is NOT .avi. If the Canon captures are .avi, then they're DV files, not HDV.
