Sony EX3 MP4 to Avid MC - Convert MP4 files from Sony EX3 to be edited in Avid Media Composer

The best workflow to fix the compatibility issues when importing and editing Sony PMW-EX3 MP4 files in Avid MC (Avid Media Composer).

The Sony EX3 imaging equipment like EX1, is 3 ½ inches CMOS imager, also is MPEG-2 long GOP code, the highest 35Mbps 1920 * 1080 Full HD recording, the standard lens is the same, are 14 times zoom HD lens Fuji dragon. So, if you use the EX3 standard words, and imaging quality of EX1 is exactly the same.

While, SONY EX3 shooting format is MP4, the MP4 file can be edited in avid MC ?

“Every time I import XDCAM MP4 Files from my Sony EX3 to Avid MC 6. The App crashed suddenly. What’s the matter on earth? Help me out! Thank you!”

Well, Avid MC might not work with some MP4 files sometimes due to the codec issue or other reasons. To import Sony EX3 MP4 files into Avid, you need to convert MP4 to Avid Media Composer friendly format first.

On Avid official website, it recommends DNxHD or XDCAM codec for editing, and DNxHD codec is the first choice. So if want to get Avid Media Composer work perfectly with MP4 videos, the easy workaround is to convert MP4 to DNxHD mov.

Brorosft Video Converter for Mac can be of great help in this task. With it, you can effortlessly transcode 720p/1080p MP4 files to DNxHD encoded MOV for Media Composer 5/5.5/6/7, and it works well and converts flawlessly. Meanwhile, the Mac Video Conversion tool can create files compatible with various non-linear editing systems like FCP, FCE, iMovie, and Adobe Premiere (Pro), etc. If you are running on Windows, get Brorsoft Video Converter.

Simple Guide to import Panasonic DMC-ZS30/TZ40 to Mac FCP/iMovie/FCE editing on Mac (Yosemite)

Do you want to solve the Panasonic DMC-ZS30/TZ40 and iMovie/Final Cut Pro/Final Cut Express compatibility problem on Mac OS X 10.10/10.8/10.7/10.6/10.5? This short article will tell you the most simple way.

The Panasonic Lumix TZ40, or ZS30 as it’s known in North America, is the company’s hugely popular travel zoom camera. Panasonic ZS30(TZ40) continues to offer the choice of two encoding formats, AVCHD(1080p, 1080i or 720p) or MP4. The former AVCHD format is for the best quality results or playback on HDTVs, but not for extensive editing or uploading. There’re some issues while importing video from Panasonic Lumix ZS30/TZ40 to FCP, iMovie, FCE on Mac.



If you just wanna view Lumix AVCHD from ZS30/TZ40 on Mac, you can upgrade operating system to Mountain Lion and you could preview the AVCHD videos in QuickTime Player. While, if you plan to do further editing in iMovie, Final Cut Pro, things become a bit complex. If you shot 1080 60i or 50i(depending on region) AVCHD footage, you are able to import and edit on FCP/FCE/iMovie in most cases, but when comes to 1080 60p or 50p AVCHD, those Mac tools Final Cut Pro, Final Cut Express, especially iMovie will reject to ingest these recordings. Alternately you can transcode Panasonic Lumix ZS30(TZ40) AVCHD video to Mac compatible format to ensure smooth editing.

Source From:Transcoding Sony NEX-FS700 50p/60p AVCHD to ProRes for FCP 6/7/X

The Sony NEX-FS700 is the clear successor to the Sony NEX-FS100 and it has lot of things going for it. It can record slow-motion Full HD video at 120 or 240fps, or it can record up to 960fps at lower resolutions. The E-Mount Lens system makes it works with Sony’s lot of NEX lenses, or you can expand its compatibility with the purchase of a lens adapter. And the camcorder is also “4K-ready”, which means Sony will announce a firmware upgrade at some point in the future that will enable the FS700 to output 4K video via its 3G HD-SDI terminal. Using the FS700, you can record Full HD .mts clips at 1080/60p or 50p mode. While enjoying the stunning HD image quality, many folks are having problems when importing FS700 60p/50p AVCHD footage to Final Cut Pro 6/7 (even with the lastest FCP X). If you’re in such a situation, you can read on the article to learn more, which mainly shows you how to get Sony NEX-FS700 1080 50P/60P footage and FCP 6/7/X to work beautifully.

In order to import NEX-FS700 60p AVCHD footage into FCP for smoothly editing, you can use 3rd-party software to re-wrap and convert 60p/50p MTS to Apple ProRes encoded mov format first, which is a native format for Final Cut Pro 6/7/X.

How to Prep GoPro (4K) Footage For Editing In Adobe Premire Pro CC/CS6/CS5

GoPro HD is the world's first true 1080P HD and best selling wearable camera to record sporting and other activities. The latest GoPro Hero4 Black allows you to record at up to 4K resolution at 30 frames per second. While enjoying the stunning HD image quality, many folks are having problems when importing GoPro (4K) footage to Adobe Premiere Pro (Adobe PP CC included). If you're in such a situation, you can read on to learn more. In this article, you will learn what's the reason and how to edit GoPro video files in Premeire Pro CC/CS smoothly.

The GoPro HD records in MPEG-4 and outputs its files as .MP4 files (the container). Files are compressed using the h.264 codec. So the files you are getting out of GoPro HD are suited to be delivered as is, which is usually not ideal for editing. Therefore you will encounter problems when ingesting GoPro MP4 files to Premiere Pro CC, CS6 or CS5 , either stretched and distorted or requires constant rendering, let alone the 4K footage from GoPro Hero4 Black. To make GoPro video files compatible with Adobe Premiere Pro, the easy workaround is to convert GoPro MP4 to MPG/WMV/MOV, something that ensures maximum editing quality and efficiency when working with Premiere Pro CC/CS6/CS5.
