H.264 Video in Adobe Premiere-Editing H.264 in Premiere Pro CS4/CS5/CS6

Summary: The Adobe Premiere Pro won't import H.264 files smoothly. The easy workaround is to transcode H.264 to a more "edit" friendly codec for Premiere Pro. Here is how.

I've had huge problems with h.264 and Adobe Premiere Pro. I shoot with a canon T2i at 24fps and its native video is on h.264 codec. I used to edit by importing the native H.264 footage into Premier Pro (CS6), but found trouble when it was really slow and didn't flow smoothly. Searching from Google and got some recommended solutions for using H.264 files in Adobe Premiere Pro. Below is the test of these ways.

Solution 1: Try MPEG Streamclip to encode h.264 to quicktime

I read some threads about encoding h.264 into .mov(I don't use a Mac so ProRes is not an option) so I heard of the program MPEG Streamclip 5 Squared to convert my videos and export them as a Quicktime. However, when I import the videos with this new codec and try to edit it, it still lags and it's annoying to edit.

Solution 2: Try Brorsoft Video Converter for Mac to convert H.264 to MPEG-2

The program is an easy-to-use yet professional H.264 encoder for Mac. It's able to convert H.264 files from Canon EOS 70D, Canon 5D Mark III, GoPro Hero, Nikon DSLR to Adobe Premiere Pro more compatible MPEG2 video. With it, you may also encode H.264 to Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere Elements, FCE, iMovie, Avid and more NLE programs highly compatible formats for editing. If meet the H.264 codec issues with Premiere Pro on Windows PC, please get Brorsoft Video Converter to solve the problem.

Premiere Pro and H.264 Workflow- Converting h.264 files to edit in Premiere Pro

1. Launch the H.264 to Premiere Pro Converter, you can click "Add Video" button (or "Add from folder") to load source files. Convert supports batch conversion, so you are allowed to add multiple files to convert at a time.

2. Select " Adobe Premiere/Sony Vegas > MPEG-2 (*.mpg)" as output format for Premiere Pro.



3. Adjust the video and audio parameters, including the Bitrate of Video&Audio, Video Size, Sample Rate, Frame Rate, Audio Channels, etc., by clicking the Settings button on the main interface for getting the best quality.

4. Click the convert button to start transcoding H.264 footage for Adobe Premiere Pro with the best H.264 Encoder.

After the process completes, click "Open" button to find the generated videos, and then you can transfer the converted H.264 recordings to Adobe Premiere Pro CS4/CS5/CS6/CC7 easily and quickly.
