However, when I import TS files to Premiere Pro CC, using the media browser, importing, or dragging it from a folder, it always crashed. I’ve research almost everywhere and couldn’t figure out.

So, on the basis of easy operation and lossless quality, I pick Pavtube MTS/M2TS Converter for Mac eventually. Since Premiere Pro CC struggles with TS files, so I used this all-in-one converter application to convert TS files to Premiere best accepted MPEG-2 .mpg and the quality was amazing.

Step 1: Download, install and launch the smart Mac MTS/M2TS Converter. Click “Add video” or “Add from folder” to load TS files to the program. You can also directly drag the files to the main interface.

Step 2: To solve TS files and Premiere Pro CC incompatible issues, click “Format” bar to choose “Adobe Premiere/Sony Vegas>> MPEG-2 (*.mpg)” as target output format.

Step 3: Click “Settings” button to customize the output video and audio settings by yourself. But if you are not good at it, you’d better use the default parameters, they will ensure you a good balance between file size and image quality basically. You can change the resolution, bit rate, frame rate as you need.

Firstly, I have to admit that it’s indeed a good idea for us to edit HC-X1000 4K MTS in Avid MC. Unfortunately, Avid Media Composer doesn’t support 4K MTS files. You may ask why not Avid cannot support 4K MTS videos, due to the best video formats no matter for HC-X1000, we need some other measures.

The HC-X1000 is a full-fledged 4K camcorder supporting various recording formats, like 4K/Cinmea 4K/Full-HD, frame rates including 60p/50p/24p and a host of professional functions. Its 4K resolution produces stunning, lifelike images, and its compact body adds agile mobility, idea for professionals shooting documentaries and events.

Versatile recording formats and bit rates prepare HC-X1000 for use in a wide range of applications. The AVCHD recording format is joined by MTS for quick and easy editing. Full-HD recording employs all-intra compression for a maximum bit rate of 200Mbpa. This brings outstanding quality to image production. “I have got a Panasonic HC-X1000 for days. Just curious if people have been able to work with the HC-X1000 4K MTS in Avid MC natively yet. Is there anybody that has found a fast reliable workflow that actually saves time? Is there conversion software that will actually use all available processor cores and available memory to make this process go fast?”

On Avid official website, it recommends DNxHD or XDCAM codec for editing, and DNxHD codec is the first choice. Since Avid MC cannot support the HC-X1000 4K AVCHD MTS files owing to the codec problem, then how can we import HC-X1000 4K MTS to Avid MC for smooth editing? The workflow will be based on Pavtube MTS/M2TS Converter for Mac, a professional video converter, player and editor. If you running on Windows, you can refer to the equivalent version Pavtube MTS/M2TS Converter.

                          

How to convert HC-X1000 4K MTS to Avid Media Composer for editing?

Step 1: Once you run the HC-X1000 4K MTS Converter on your Mac, click “Add video” button or “Add from folder” button to load your source 4K MTS files from HC-X1000.

Step 2: This HC-X1000 4K MTS Converter offers optimized format presets for Avid Media Composer. Choose “Avid Media Composer>>Avid DNxHD (*.mov)” as output format. This format is best for Avid Media Composer native editing.
Tips: If you want to combine several 4K MTS clips into one, please tick the box “Merge into one file” under the preview window. This Mac MTS Converter also includes the editing function to let you trim, crop, edit audio, add watermark and subtitles and etc. before conversion.

Step 3: Click “Settings” button to customize the output video and audio settings by yourself. But if you are not good at it, you’d better use the default parameters, they will ensure you a good balance between file size and image quality basically. You can change the resolution, bit rate, frame rate as you need.

Step 4: When ready, click “Convert” button to start format conversion.

Conclusion: As soon as the conversion is complete, you can click “Open” to get the exported DNxHD MOV files for use in Avid Media Composer with optimum performance. Now, enjoy editing HC-X1000 4K MTS in Avid MC!

Sony HDR-AS200V XAVC S to Windows Movie Maker Import Issues

Meet the NEW Action Cam HDR AS200V, the highest image quality of all Full HD Action Cam ever. You may have got the Sony HDR-AS200V camera which recorded some full-HD footages in XAVC S format. Do you have a desire to import XAVC S to Windows Movie Maker for editing?

XAVC S, a new format introduced by Sony with MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 level 5.2, the highest picture resolution and frame rate video compression codec is much more than a video format that Windows Movie Maker can support. So, it’s not strange that you have met so many XAVC S to WMM import issues.

First of all, let’s look at a case found online. “I have a bunch of XAVC S files from a Sony HDR-AS200V. I’m running Vista 64. What is the easiest way to import XAVC S to Windows Movie Maker? When I try to import, WMM won’t allow me to use the XAVC S files as it doesn’t have the codec for it.”

Do you have the same problem as mentioned above? Want to import XAVC S to Windows Movie Maker for editing, but only to find the loading fails. Or for some unknown reasons, the XAVC S footages become lossy. In order to make the Sony AS200V XAVC S files work smoothly in WMM, you need to be clear what file formats are supported for importing into the editing tool first. You can import files with the following file extensions into Windows Movie Maker:
Videos: AVI, ASF, MPEG, MPG, WMV, and MP2
Audios: MP3, MP2, AIFF, ASF, AU, WAV and WMA

As you can see, XAVC is not among the accepted video types by WMM. To load XAVC S files into WMM, you should convert XAVC S to one of the video formats mentioned above. Pavtube Video Converter is perfect for you to finish the conversion job on any Windows computer, such as Windows 7, 8, Vista and XP. It will save you both time and trouble, and all you need to do is to drag the result videos for prompt editing.

              

Detailed steps about importing XAVC S to Windows Movie Maker:

Step 1: Download, set up and run the XAVC S to Windows Movie Maker Converter. Click the “Add video” icon on the top left of the panel, or directly drag and drop to add the XAVC S shootings to the program.

Step 2: Click “Format” bar to select suitable format for Windows Movie Maker. Choose “HD Video>>WMV HD (*.wmv)” as best output format.

Step 3: Click the “Settings” button and set proper video/ audio parameters. My advice is to set the video size, bit rate and fame rate to be exactly as the footages so that you will suffer least quality degradation. If you would like to use default settings, simply skip this step.

Step 4: After all necessary settings, hit the “Convert” button to start the XAVC S to Windows Movie Maker best supported WMV conversion. If you have added quite a bunch of XAVC S files, it would take some time to convert. In such case, you can click “Option” and tick the box “Shut down the computer after conversion”.

Conclusion: After the conversion, you can easily locate the converted XAVC S files by clicking the “Open” button in the main interface. Then, you can bring and edit XAVC S in Windows Movie Maker without any issue.

However, most users find that the output H.264 files are hard to edit. And the video editing software for Windows 8.1/8 like Windows Movie Maker can’t support Nikon D7200 H.264 files perfectly. Now follow this tutorial to solve H.264 files to WMM import issues.

As free and famous video editing software, Windows Movie Maker has the ability to create and edit videos and then upload them to YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook and etc. for sharing. However, it’s impossible to import H.264 files to WMM which are captured by Nikon D7200 on Windows 8.1/8. Just like other editing systems, it has no ability to handle all video formats. Obviously, Nikon D7200 H.264 files to WMM workflow is needed to be known.

H.264 is not a stranger codec to most people; essentially all of the electronic digital products now support this encoding format. And various extensions of its capabilities have been added in subsequent. The intent of the H.264 project was to create a standard capable of providing good video quality at substantially lower bit rate than previous standards, without increasing the complexity of design so much that it would be impractical or excessively expensive to implement. So, how can we put H.264 files to WMM? What solutions should we take to convert H.264 files to WMM for solving H.264 files to WMM import issues?

If you want to transcode H.264 files to WMM, you have to convert H.264 files to WMM compatible format. As a matter of fact, H.264 files to WMM conversion process are much easier than you might have imagined. Pretty much any video converting application would be able to do this. The best program I use now is Pavtube Video Converter which is an easy-to-use yet powerful high-quality video converter, player and editor. It also offers some cool video editing features like cropping, cutting, merging and so on.

                       

How to transcode Nikon D7200 H.264 files to WMM on Windows 8.1/8?

Step 1: Download, install and run H.264 files to WMM Video Converter. Click the “Add” button to load Nikon D7200 H.264 files. If you want to load several H.264 files at once, you can click “Add from folder” button. You can also use the drag-and-drop method to load the media files to the application UI.

Step 2: Click “Format” pull down list to select “HD Video>>WMV HD (*.wmv)” as output format for importing H.264 files to WMM.

Step 3: Click “Settings” to fix the frame rate, bit rate, video size, and etc. to your needs. To have a smooth editing with Windows Movie Maker, you need create the files with the appropriate resolution and frame rate that matches your source footage. It does a really big favor in H.264 files to WMM conversion.

Step 4: Click the “Convert” button at the bottom right corner to finish encoding H.264 files to WMM on Windows 8.1/8.

Conclusion: After the conversion, you can find the output files by clicking “Open” button on the main interface, then you can transfer the encoded H.264 files to WMM to play and edit without any issue.
