hello all, i'm not sure that i am in the right place but i guess someone will know how to help me,, i hope.. I recorded a video on a hd camcorder, it saves the files as mov. files, i want to burn this onto a dvd, but i want to edit the movie so it looks nice, any i have premier pro 6.5 and although it says mov. files are supported it never imports them. so with the program i got with the camcorder (presto video works 6)i can convert the files to avi, (i was thinking i could then edit these in premier pro, however i have say 4 mov. files, now the biggest mov. file is 477mb yet when it is converted it goes to 76.6gb!! how and why does it do this? i dont want to lose any quality other wise it would be pointless using a hd camcorder? can anyone help?
I would only be guessing - you could verify the the video type using MediaInfo or GSpot - but since it's saving it as AVI, I would think it's DV-AVI (digital video avi).
ok, but is there a program or something i can use to convert these mov. files without loss of quality and be able to edit them? ideally in a perfect world, premier pro would import them then i could edit and then burn them onto a disc, but that would be easy and nothing really is lol.
