I've got a big problem on my hands and I could really use some advice. My
friend just
invested in Adobe Premiere CS3 after having multiple problems with Sony Vegas
7.0d. He's
got almost 16 tapes of HD footage from his JVC camera loaded into a Vegas
project, and
the native format for Vegas is an m2t MPG. He'd like to import all of that into
a Premiere
project set at 720p/24 fps, but we ran into some problems tonight. They
included:
- The audio in all the clips was offset when importing the m2t into Premiere. I
could not
get the audio to match up no matter what the project settings were shifted to.
Even
weirder, the offset seemed to change every time we played it, so it wasn't like
a perfect 30
frame offset that we could count on.
- The footage, which was all captured at 720p/24 fps in Vegas, showed up in the
bins as
29.9 fps or oddly enough, 19.98 fps. They played on the timeline fine (besides
the audio
issues) but I didn't know if I did something wrong in the project settings to
make it do
that.
- We absolutely could not bypass the pulldown, it only gave us the two pulldown
choices
without letting us just watch the footage at the proper framerate.
Being that this was my first experiment with HD footage in Premiere, I was not
sure what
to do. Any/all advice on what might have gone wrong, even if its educated
speculation,
would be very appreciated.
On the same tip, if there's a piece of software out there that could easily
convert HD m2t
footage into Premiere-friendly HD AVIs, I'd love to know about it. Help!
