Can Adobe Premier Elements 4.0 Edit HD Video?
 

Can Adobe Premier Elements 4.0 edit HD video from a Canon HV20?

Thanks!

elements 3.0, which im using, can definitely edit hd footage from my hv10, so i assume 4.0 should have no problem doing it. only problem im having is properly exporting it as hd footage.

quoted from adobe:

"Share movies in HD for the highest quality

Take advantage of the latest technology and enjoy your movies in high definition, including on Blu-ray Disc."

I found the following links which review Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0 lack of support for the AVCHD format.

Apparently, Adobe is working on an update with no details on a release date. For now, Sony Vegas Movie Studio Platinum evidently supports AVCHD provided that you record on a Sony camcorder.
