Using .aaf files to import clips...
Maybe it's a little long, but I develop a truly professional workflow for first CC 2015.
The idea is that I want to use "daily" made in a program 3rd party to edit with them. These newspapers will stage/take info already incorporated as well as multi channel audio sync'd to the video when they are imported.
Essentially, I'm using an AVID workflow, but with the ease of PPCC15 Cup.
So far I have everything worked (but something that will follow this):
- Sync/color/transcode in "Assimilate scratch" format MXF (DnxHD_444)
- This creates a flie aaf, which allows me to import in PP with all attached and ready to go!
I've done some export of XML files test and I can bring scratch like a dream. Transitions and all imported and link to the source file of origin for the color correction.
THE PROBLEM:
Although it might seem minor, when I import in PP via the .aaf file, it works well. The problem is, each element is introduced in its own bin! It's just frustrating. Their displacement is possible and just fine, but when it comes to a feature, which can be THOUSANDS of clips. I want to be able to import them into a large bin without subfolders.
Someone from Adobe (or elsewhere) read this and have a few ideas on how to get there?
Thanks in advance

Cannot open footage or import clips - unsupported file format
We have an iMac workstation running here first that won't open projects or import clips. Here is the chronology of events that led to this:
1. first was locked up on the splash screen whenever he arrived at the "ImporterQuicktime.bundle". I tried trashing preferences and launch with plug-ins disabled and received the same gel. Based on the recommendations of the forum that I removed "ImporterQuicktime.bundle" and "ExporterQuickTimeHost.bundle" in the plug-ins folder inside the packaging. The software launched fine - but none of the Quicktime files in the project worked. So then I took copies of the 2 files above the iMac next to it, with exactly the same setup and paste into the plugins folder. Since that time - launch of the software generated errors below.
2 try to open any project gives long error that starts out as: the preset used by one or more sequences in this project requires third-party components that could not be located.
3 start a new project and try to drag any Quicktime ProRes media in the project give the error: unsupported file Format.
I've trashed the preferences, re-installed the Codecs from Quicktime Pro Apps, authorized the computer and re-authorized and updated Adobe Premiere 7.0 to 7.2. Which no correction of the problem.
I think to try a full reinstall of first then. Any other ideas?
Here are the details:
First Pro 7.2 CC
Mac OS 10.8.5
iMac model end 2012, 32 GB of RAM, 2 GB video card
Thank you.

I think I found a work around. It seems that the 7.2 upgrade is making it so that our XDCAM 422 Quicktime clips are not recognized correctly. Cut the two currently in a project and a new clip imports do not work. Attempt to import clips using this codec generates error message: not supported format or corrupted file. This has happened on both a system iMac running OS 10.8.5 and a Macbook Pro running OS - which have been upgraded to first 7.2 10.9.1. In both cases - uninstall and reinstallation of first solved the problem.

6 of Lightroom cannot read my Canon 5 d Mark III photo files, the import message I received: the following files were not imported because they could not be read. I use the same camera that I used Lightroom 5 with the same cards Compact flash. The files are: DK5A0243. CR2
Lightroom 6 trying to copy pictures to a different directory than what is Lightroom 5. That's why you have the problem.
You can change the directory where you are teaching LR 6 to place photos, or change the permissions on this directory to read & write.

Is there a reason to save the original NEF files after import for the LR in the form of files 'convert to DNG? Why save versions when the DNG is the original and the NAVE seems to just take remote hard drive space?
I see no reason to keep them, they take a lot of space, one of the reasons to convert to DNG is that they are almost 20% smaller than the ships.
But it is of course your choice...

Audio popping up on imported Clips
Hello
I am very new to Final Cut Pro and 2 major problems:
First of all, I hear audio pop regular, strong throughout my clips.
Second, my exported files are far too great, to more than 9 GB for a 9 minute clip.
My company is video teaching of music online. I used to edit using an older version of Premiere Pro, but passed to Final Cut, because I heard it was easier to sync for multicamera editing clips.
I recently completed the shooting of months of video tutorial for a new online course, using a configuration of 2 camera, with all the noise (LAV mic, guitar and backing track signal) enter one of the two cameras Sony HDR PJ-620 via a Mackie mixer, in order to save the record audio separately.
I am a professional musician and know a fair amount to get a decent sound in the studio, so my raw files from video MTS sound of intact, with good balance and EQ level. I managed to tweak everything as I wanted until I started filming.
However, when I import files into Final Cut to edit, I experience loud pop during playback. It is extremely sensitive and occurs every 3 or 4 seconds.
At first, I assumed that the problem came from my system, hard to follow. I use proxy media during editing. However, persistent organic pollutants are still on the video after export.
My sound levels in the project is without cutting. They peak at about-3 db. I did no equalizer or sound settings setting and there is no audio compression or effects, just the audio crude comes from the MTS file.
Secondly, as I mentioned above, when I export my project via the master file by default settings, the file size is huge. It seems incredible, but it weighs about 9 GB for a 9 minute video.
My videos are meant to be online streaming via a delivery service of content such as Amazon S3 or Vimeo Pro (not YouTube). I need them to be of good quality, but much smaller than they are currently.
Can you recommend a decent framework of export? Should I have converted the MTS to Mov files before import into my project? I used to do this with Premiere Pro, but he said I wouldn't need to in Final Cut.
I'm under El Capitan 10.11.5. My version of Final Cut is 10.2.3.
I use a mid-2014, retina 15 "Macbook Pro with a processor Intel Core i7 2.8 GHz, 16 GB of memory. My graphics card is a NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
IF you work with the camera .mts files, the media was not imported correctly. If you import from the camera through the window to import the files get reupholstered for QuickTime and tracks worked for production. . MTS is a horrible format and should not be used in production. You might try to optimize media. This creates files of proti which are very large and require fast disks, but are of very high quality.
Export a master file and set the H.264 format.

How can I tell imovie to send Import Clips?
Hello everyone,
I appreciate all the help this forum helped me to this day. Thanks again to all who responded!
My workflow is 1. Take my SD card in my panasonic camcorder and put it in the drive 2. To import the files, use iMovie. However, is it possible to import them to another hard drive? I can't set the location. Also, I have no idea where they take the clips. Is it possible to find individual clips that I can access outside of iMovie in which if I click it, it will play the clip? I heard that iMovie it encapsulates all in one giant file.
Also to create a movie, first IMPORT the clips to a large bank I am talking about above, so I ENTER these clips on a PROJECT? I am curious about others ' work flow.
Thanks for your help here!
Joe
When you import clips, they will be placed in the selected event, but you can change this with the ' import to:' field:
The clips will be stored here where the library containing this event is registered. If it's on an external hard drive, then the clips go. If you go to the library (extension .imovielibrary) with the finder then right click > view the contents of the package, you will see folders for each event and each project. Within each of them will be a "Original media" folder which contains the imported clips. You can play or copy them from there, but changes nothing in the library.
The normal workflow is to import clips into events and create projects and drag and drop clips from the events in the calendar of the project.
Geoff.
PS in the absence of other information, I assume you are using the latest version of iMovie (10.1.1)

I'm trying to import clips in first pro. Whenever I try, first pro crashes
First CC Pro v9.0
My clips come from a Canon XF305, in folders with CIF, XML, MXF and SIF files. In the past, just the MXF files were imported. I insist on all records containing elements I want. When I hit import a screen will appear with a 'serious mistake' that requires Adobe Premiere Pro to stop. "Can anyone help? Thank you
Use the Canon XF utility on Monday to make a backup. Then Tuesday to an incremental backup in the backup directory.

Settings of the source is now gray for each new r3d imported clips
At some point, I'm now impossible to import a new clip of r3d (old and new project) with the Source not grayed out settings. Relocation of REDCINE-X has not been set. Reset has not been set.
Previously imported clips are clickable Source parameters. A same re-imported clip will also be grayed out option.
Question was not existing yesterday on Premiere Pro CC 2015...
For any clip of R3D (or another format that used to have the Source settings) imported CC, 2015, the settings feature moved to Master Clip effects. If you import a clip of R3D CC 2014 project, then the Source settings will be enabled in the project Panel.
Excerpt from the doc for help:
Parameters of source code available in the effect controls panel
For RED, ARRI, CinemaDNG, DPX and Sony F65 media files, you can set the Source settings using the master tab in the effect controls panel. Previously, the settings of the Source were available in a modal dialog box.

unsupported in the first CC AAF file format
So, I got a RAA embedded in a post House. They exported to Avid. I'm trying to import into first. I can import the aaf very well, but after importation, he tried to link media to the aaf. I have that it points to the anti-icing fluid and it says "File not taken in charge." When I open the sequence he imported everything is offline because it could not bind to the aaf. What I'm doing wrong here? Or is there some kind of question to bring an embedded AAFS to Avid to first Pro CC?
Premiere Pro supports import AAF, but he can't use AAF with integrated media. You will need the files of the original media to create a link to the translated sequence.
Here is a step by step to export the abnormal analysis result of Avid Media Composer in a way that should ensure as much compatibility: migrate projects from Avid to Premiere Pro | Adobe first Pro CC tutorials

Import clips from his lack of Sony HXR-NX5E
Hello!
Thanks Adobe to bring us first, but in 2012, according to me, that the import clips should not be so annoyingly difficult.
I imported clips using "import" and «media browser.» Two ways to let me with picture but the sound is "not there", or sometimes very "crisp/digital." Clips of same see to VLC player works fine, but the sound does not come from my helmet. For some reason, it's using the internal speaker, but it seems OK. I use sony HXR-NX5E, first CS 6 and I am on win 7 64 bit. Don't know what sound card I use.
Update: prelude (never used before) I can see soundwaves and hear the noise? It is low, but can be used. Now... What can I do to get into the first and preserve the sound?
Thanks for the ideas...

Hello!
Jeff Merci for your help. I discovered that the upgrade of MasterCollection (creation) 5.5 to 6 makes the difference about this problem. Files now import correctly. They are not under MC 5.0 and 5.5. Boring!
For any other still struggeling 5.5 and the same problems I have no solution, but in response to Jeff:
1 tried both:
(a) copy all folders and files of the map
(b) imported only the master to mts
2 it is correct. Bad Examplefile, but the same problem on other files with the longest span (check Media Info below another file)
3 no, but the camera have two bays of card. All content has been saved on this single card. I can't believe that something has been recorded on the other card. That would be awkward and files from one card work in Prelude (poor audio) and VLC as they are.
4 as well as the rules on the media. Problem is the software/hardware/operating system?

No video shows when you import clips in movie maker mpeg video
I am running xp home with service pack 3 installed. When I try to import mpeg movie clips in moviemaker now only the audio shows, before they imported correctly. I've done this before and the films I've done import and play very well, but when I try to import clips I origionaly used to create the film there is no video. the clips play fine in media player, but not in movie maker. What has changed.
Hi, Johns53,
Have you tried to uninstall Service Pack 3, restart the computer and restart the clips? They work then?
If so, reinstall the SP3 and perform the following steps
Visit the site of the manufacturer of the video card driver updates
Open the Device Manager
Right-click on the video driver and select Update driver
Right click on the driver and select uninstall
Restart the computer
Windows will reinstall the drivers
Clips of retry. They work now?

Cannot use the file search.
When I search for files. I get the text next message: Windows Explorer has stopped working & Windows Explorer restarts. This is what is happening without research.
Hello
This is mainly caused by an incompatible Shell Extension.
You can download this reg from my SkyDrive file:
http://CID-128fc518635be2dc.SkyDrive.live.com/self.aspx/.public/Ms%20Foren/registry/WER%5E_Explorer.reg
and double click on the file to import. If you are unable to do this, run regedit.exe and import the registry file here!
When the Windows Explorer crashes, Windows Error Reporting Service [1] creates a dmp under C:\Localdumps. Please download the file to your public Skydrive folder [2] and post the link here. I take a look at the discharge with the debugger, maybe that I can see what Shell extension is the cause.
