In the meantime, here is a short review of those AVCHD weaknesses:Ĭurrent AVCHD cameras (even professional ones) have chosen to record using lame FAT32 formatting, which unnecessarily forces the creation of multiple sequential files for long clips, which is a mess to view and manage at a system (“Finder”) level, and (without special workarounds in the software editor) requires manual rejoining of said sequential clips.ĭue to its heritage in the Blu-ray format, instead of simply recording video files, all current AVCHD cameras (even professional ones) record video files in a strange hierarchy of folders and subfolders, which are also a mess to view and manage at a system (“Finder”) level.Īlso due to its heritage in the Blu-ray format, 1080/25p and 1080/29.97p are not specifically valid, so all current AVCHD cameras (even professional ones) are unfortunately forced to record 1080/25p as 1080/25PsF, and 1080/29.97p as 1080/29.97PsF. The terms benign PsF and malignant PsF were introduced in Part 1 of this series called PsF’s missing workflow.Ī summary of AVCHD’s multiple weaknesses for anyone who plans to edit the footageįor all of the details, please read (or review) parts 1-7 of this PsF’s missing workflow. Now in #8, I’ll reveal how the US$49.99 middleware known as ClipWrap will be the cure-all for all of AVCHD’s multiple weaknesses, including both types of PsF, at least in the short term. In #7, I covered how to deal with PsF on a progressive sequence in Premiere Pro CS5.5. In #6, I published an open letter to all pro AVCHD manufacturers. In #5, we revealed how one recorder manufacturer is offering its own “Band-Aid” software to counteract the inappropriate signals offered over HDMI by many camera manufacturers. In #4, we did the same with several HD video recorders from 6 different manufacturers. In parts 1-3 of the PsF’s missing workflow series, we introduced the terms benign PsF & malignant PsF, and revealed the PsF status of several professional AVCHD cameras from 3 manufacturers (Canon, Panasonic, and Sony).
