  • @Flowraince

    very happy to hear that.

    

  • @Flowraince

    for avchd footage, try the 'log and capture' window in a recently upgraded version of fcp

  • hi jesse! i have a sony hdr-cx550 and it create MTS files. I used a lot of files converter but i had no results. I also bought Total Video Converter from the imac apple store and i tried all settings: the result is a bad video quality and it's slower than the original file... please help me becouse i don't know what to do!!

  • @CaptainBasch1

    try vlc media player, it's free and plays back mts files.

  • Hi, Jesse. I've a EX3 and usually, after log and transfer in FCP create *.MOVs files, I backup these MOVs and delete BPAV folder.

    The content in BPAV is the same that MOVs files in relation quality image?

    thanks

    Cleisson

  • @TERRAFIRMETV

    thanks for watching our videos cleisson. yes, the mov files are almost identical in image quality to the information stored in the BPAV folder. and they are much more useful, you can play them back in a lot of programs.

  • @CaptainBasch1 yeah, i had the same issues with MTS over the past 5 years. Those camera's are impossible to import succesfully in FCP. I have an hdr-sr12 and it kinda reminded me of a pokemon, it evolves itself into something worse than it already is. You can try enything with those camera's but once you solved a problem the camera is just making new problems instead. So the only thing that worked for me is throwing it agains a wall, and buy a camera that doesn't record in AVCHD format.

  • I have EXCAM footage all logged into folders, do you need another plugin to import the BPAV folders into FCP7? I cant import anything from my hard drive is the XD plugin here just for XD or EX just from SxS card?

    This is so confusing and yes my FCP7 crashes after 10mins too... CS5 might be the better option? Just drag and drop the BPAV folder and it is that easy!
