58 Chapter 5: Importing, transferring, capturing, and digitizing Transferring and importing files For information about shooting and capturing high-quality audio and video, see "Shooting and Capturing Great Video Assets," from Premiere Pro CS5 Classroom in a Book. File formats supported for import Important: The trial version of Premiere Pro CS5 doesn't include some features that depend on third-party software components that are only included in the full version of Premiere Pro. The import and export of some formats are not supported in the trial version, such as AVC-Intra, AVCHD, HDV, MPEG-2, MPEG-2 DVD, MPEG-2 Blu-ray, and XDCAM. The trial version for Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 and later does not have the limitations that Premiere Pro CS5 has. It includes all sequence presets, editing modes, encoders, and decoders that are included in the full, activated version of Premiere Pro CS5.5 and later. However, after downloading the trial version of Premiere Pro CS5.5 and later, you do not receive the title templates or non-English speech-to-text dictionaries (speech analysis modes). These items are available for download after you have purchased the software. For a detailed list of limitations of the trial version of Premiere Pro software, see the Adobe website. For more details about the trial version of Premiere Pro CS5.5 and later, see this video. Premiere Pro can import many video and audio formats. Plug-in software modules provide file format support. Most of these software modules are installed automatically with Premiere Pro. Some filename extensions-such as MOV, AVI, MXF, FLV, and F4V-denote container file formats rather than denoting a specific audio, video, or image data format. Container files can contain data encoded using various compression and encoding schemes. Premiere Pro can import these container files, but the ability to import the data that they contain is dependent on the codecs (specifically, decoders) installed. By installing additional codecs, you can extend the ability of Premiere Pro to import additional file types. Many codecs must be installed into the operating system (Windows or Mac OS) and work as a component inside the QuickTime or Video for Windows formats. Contact the manufacturer of your hardware or software for more information about codecs that work with the files that your specific devices or applications create. If Premiere Pro does not import your file, see this FAQ video tutorial, "Why can't Premiere Pro import my file?" for an explanation. Video and still-image files that you want to import must not be more than the maximum dimensions allowed. For more information on maximum dimensions in Premiere Pro, see the Premiere Pro Work Area blog. Adobe provides workflow guides for P2, RED, XDCAM, AVCCAM, and DSLR cameras and footage on the Adobe website. Colin Brougham explains how Premiere Pro works natively with tapeless media (no transcoding) in this article and video series on the ProVideo Coalition website. For more information about RED (R3D) digital cinema and Canon XF improvements in Premiere Pro CS5.5 and later, read this post on the Premiere Pro work area blog. Premiere Pro can import files in the formats listed, provided the codec used to generate a specific file is installed locally. Last updated 1/16/2012
