Saul Rodgar Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 (edited) Wondering how people edit AVCHD footage. I am using MACs and I use the Apple Intermediate Codec to convert to mov. Anybody know any other ways? Thanks Edited July 6, 2008 by Saul Rodgar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Osinski Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Wondering how people edit AVCHD footage. I am using MACs and I use the Apple Intermediate Codec to convert to mov. Anybody know any other ways? Thanks I was interested in this also. I am looking into getting the new HMC150 but wanted to be able to use both Apple and Adobe Programs without any problems. I know that adobe does not support avchd, and I'm not sure what premier, after effects, and encore's deal is with apple prores 422, but I am pretty sure that both final cut studio 2 programs and adobe production premium 2 programs will run DVCproHD just great. This is what I was thinking...I could capture my AVCHD files right off the card into Apple Pro Res 422 using FCP, then maybe use compressor to convert those files to DVCProHD and be able to use them in any of the adobe or apple programs. Any thoughts on this? I know it would take a long time but would it work? My setup would probably be mac pro 8 core 2.8ghz 4 GB ram adobe production premium final cut studio 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Adrian Sierkowski Posted August 10, 2008 Premium Member Share Posted August 10, 2008 Hmm, in that case, yes, you can take the pro res out to DVCProHd either in compressor or just in FCP to work on PP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
