1. Re: AVCHD - shot with 30P, converts properly... shot with 60i or 24P = impossible to convert properl
Curt Wrigley Jan 14, 2010 7:25 PM (in response to twiesjeremy)If you are editing it in FCP; import it with FCP. Final cut converts AVCHD footage to an intermediate prores format during the log and transfer process.

twiesjeremy Jan 14, 2010 7:30 PM (in response to Curt Wrigley)I'm unfortunately working with a version of FCP that does not support AVCHD using the log+transfer tool...

Curt Wrigley Jan 14, 2010 7:36 PM (in response to twiesjeremy)Are you loading the source clips directly into stand alone ver of AME?
Its possible the 24p on this camcorder is not 24p, but 60i or 30p with a bunch of duplicate frames to simulate 24p. Try treating the source as 60i or 30p and see what happens?

twiesjeremy Jan 14, 2010 7:52 PM (in response to Curt Wrigley)Yes, loading the .mts files directly into AME.
I am certain this camera shoots true 24P, I don't think Canon would claim to shoot 24P and not actually. Besides, a "fake" 24P from a camera that only really shoots at 30fps would probably result in dropped frames every 5 frames, not duplicates...
Anyways, when converting the 30P footage it works perfectly... when converting 60i footage, every frame is just duplicated - even when trying both upper and lower field dominance.
As far as I can tell, you cannot change any settings regarding the source files dropped in, only the output...
Your help has been much appreciated, however!

Terrachild Jan 16, 2010 5:09 AM (in response to twiesjeremy)See my AVCHD Conspiracy? thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/554404?tstart=0 for a guy that is shooting beautiful 24p footage on that Canon HF-S10/100.
It is 24 in 60i stream. You have to use something to like Cineform to get your 24p footage out.

joshtownsend Jan 16, 2010 7:08 AM (in response to Terrachild)You can use after effects to do the pulldown correctly but I don't think there's a way to batch render it.

twiesjeremy Jan 16, 2010 6:38 PM (in response to joshtownsend)Terrachild, I did read through that thread, thank you. I want to avoid buying new software for this if possible...
joshtownsend, would you be able to briefly explain how you'd use after effects to do the pulldown?
Thanks
