GH3 Corrupt MTS Files
I've been shooting weddings with GH3's for the past few months, and something I'm noticing is that I'm getting 1 or 2 corrupt clips on each card. The problem always happens when I try to bring the clips into Premiere -- it will either import the clips without audio and with horrible green blocky artifacts all over; or I'll simply get a message from Premiere saying that the file has a header error.
Is anyone else running into this problem? Is there a way to restore these files? The strange thing is that they play fine in Windows Media Player. I'm also using good Lexar/Panasonic/Sandisk SDHC cards. |
Re: GH3 Corrupt MTS Files
Just to clarify the solutions I've tried to repair the clips:
1. No Adobe program will open the clips, as I thought I'd just take them into After Effects and render them out again. 2. Panasonic offers a few recovery apps, none of which benefited me at all. I finally found a program that will open and export to a new working file -- a video conversion program called Handbrake. It's not ideal (as I would just like to simply repair the original clips), but it works. |

Also check your card reader, the only time I had a couple of corrupted files was when the multi format media reader on my computer was going out. I replaced it with an external that plugged into a USB port and that worked fine. |

I wonder if changing the card reader will help. Please keep us posted. I've never had a corrupt file, thank goodness. It will happen, eventually, I'm sure, but I will know at least to try changing the reader to see what happens. Luck Corey.
