Hi
I have seen lots of threads and all of them seem to end in misery!!
I have a sont HD camcorder and have installed all the software, i also installed pinnacle 12 and prem cs4 (my software of choice)
I can watch the files in sony AVCHD player and edit them in pinnacle studio 12
BUT when i try to import the m2ts files into premiere i get "File format not supported"
Whats the best way around this, i dont want to have to convert before i import really!!!
Many Thanks
Chris

Your first mistake was buing an AVCHD camcorder.........now you'll have to deal with it. Lesson 1, always do your homework first.....................
You can try a trial version of Vegas 8, or frameserve via Avisynth and AVSPlugin for Premiere, or use DGAVCDec and convert to a lossless codec like Lagarith.
..........Sorry, you'll get no sympathy from me, I'm a tried a true HDV user all the way.

I'm guessing there's something missing when you installed CS4. Maybe a checkbox to install additional support files?
