As soon as someone finds out if cs4 will handle 24f the way it should...respond to this thread. I'll upgrade as soon as you do.

Thanks

What problems were you having? Was it sync issues?

sync issues with cs3 and hdv when captured with cs3. HDVsplit sort of fixed it, but there are still some sync issues, just not as pronounced.
I was hoping for a proper 24f preset in capture and project settings for the xh-a1 so there is no messing around. plug and play.

I know some people have found work arounds. I just want corresponding software to go along with my camera.

I may have a solution for you. I was working on an HDV 24f project shot with a XL-H1. I had sync issues, and an Adobe tech sent me an updated plugin for MPEG files - after that, the sync issues went away.

I'd be happy to email it to you.
