HDV Import audio problem
 
Anybody else having audio problems with PremierePro2 importing HDV?

It's often a couple of frames out of sync.

Today I imported a 90 min HDV clip and the audio repeated about 2/3 through the clip. The audio under the timeline at 70 minutes or so was the audio from the beginning!

If I check out the clip in Tmpgenc, it's fine.

Captures should not cross start/stop points. That's why I scene detect using a third party application. When you cross boundaries, you get drift.

Steven,

Thanks.

I do events and generally just let the camera roll. There's really no way a scene-splitter could easily detect where I want cuts so I just dump the whole thing on a timeline and chop it up pasting the sub-clips I like into another sequence.

Now that I think about it, I paused the camera in the middle of the taping. (Paused the tape not the laptop)

Hmmm... I've been capturing with HDVsplit and notice that a few packets are lost if I start Split before the camera recording, - also, anytime I pause the camera without stopping HDVSplit. I never worried about it because those packets were reasonably before or after any useable footage and I'd just remove those sections anyway. Could be that's giving me my drift importing to Premiere though. (And this weird total restart of the audio that doesn't show up in Tmpgenc)

Looks like I'm finding more and more uses for Tmpgenc 4 Express. Glad I bought it. It loads HDV without the "indexing" wait of Premiere and I should be able to easily rough edit my footage into useable "pauseless" clips. It also resizes great, has a bunch of useful filters and outputs the separate audio and video that Encore likes.

I'm gonna go play. Thanks for the heads-up.

OK - I spoke too soon. Tmpgenc splits the file fine as long as you use it in Tmpgenc. To actually use the splits in another program you have to re-encode. - I don't think so.
