Premiere CS3 can import every HVX format?

Can Scanner

Well-known member
I just heard the news about Premiere Pro CS3 importing P2 footage natively.
Does this mean it will accept every format the HVX can shoot? PAL and NTSC? 720 PN modes? Over and undercranking? Can it keep 720PN24 at its nice low bitrate (compared to 720P60) like CineForm does?

Can anyone confirm this?

(I did a search, here and Adobe's site, and couldn't confirm.)

Thanks!

Native Panasonic P2 editing

Import and edit content from Panasonic P2 equipment natively, without transcoding or rewrapping. Deliver content quickly and efficiently with true native editing directly from the P2 media. Or copy files to the hard drive to take full advantage of your system’s speed. Adobe Premiere Pro retains key metadata from the P2 media, making it available within the project window. Finally, export your work to P2 to allow playback on P2 equipment.
 
Yeah but the help file says this.

Capturing HD video

You can capture audio and video from an HD device with an SDI port, provided your computer has a supported SDI capture card installed, along with its drivers and software. Similarly, you can import HD footage from XDCAM and P2 sources provided a supported XDCAM/P2 capture card or drive is installed, along with its respective driver. The correct installation adds HD project presets to the Load Preset pane of the New Project panel and HD capture formats to the Capture Format drop-down menu in the Capture area of the Custom Settings pane."






I tried to import from a drive and you can't see the files. I tried each folder to see if saw anything and the only thing it sees is the bmp files for the thumbnails.
 
Hi Two-Beat,

Did you try with a 16Gigger in one of card trays? The system might see that as one of the supported 'devices.'
 
I suppose you could not import because the update has not yet been released? Or has it? Or do you have beta?

Beat:

Are you saying you are a beta tester and it isn't working, or you tried it at IBC?

Because the update is yet unreleased.
 
So, if I'm understanding things correctly, Premier Pro CS3 is already out right? but there is an update to it that will allow us to edit P2 footage natively right? but it might not be out yet right?
 
hey guys, just got this email form HD Studio Magazine. Do you know if its available yet?

[FONT=Lucida Grande, Geneva, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Adobe Premiere Pro to Offer MXF Support[/FONT]

[FONT=Lucida Grande, Geneva, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Thanks to a new licensing agreement with MOG Solutions, Adobe Premier Pro users now have complete access to files wrapped in the MXF (the Material Exchange Format) via Adobe’s CS3 video-editing software. This enables it to support more camera formats, workflows, and some neat time-saving tricks.[/FONT]
[FONT=Lucida Grande, Geneva, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Though MXF gets a fair amount of ink, it remains a mysterious concept to many video users. But it’s going to matter soon, so it’s time to at least give a simple explanation.[/FONT]

[FONT=Lucida Grande, Geneva, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]This SMPTE-approved standard file format enables both the audiovisual material and its related information to be carried in a video file. This information, called metadata, could include such things as compression settings, geo-localization data, or even transcripts of the content. Regardless of the data, the entire package of content travels with the video wherever it may go.[/FONT]

[FONT=Lucida Grande, Geneva, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]The MXF format is already used with Sony’s XDCAM, Panasonic’s P2, Grass Valley’s Infinity, and Ikegami’s EditCam formats. The information starts with the camera and flows through post-production, archive and even through distribution.[/FONT]

[FONT=Lucida Grande, Geneva, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]MOG Solutions has been working with various manufacturers, systems integrators, and users to enhance video workflows by exploiting the capabilities of MXF for various time-saving tasks. For example, MOG helped NBC use metadata to wade through hundreds of hours of video shot during the 2006 Olympic Winter Games.[/FONT]
