Sony RX10 III XAVC S /AVCHD Video to iMovie Workflow on Mac El Capitan

Sony RX10 III is an excellent digital camera, it is able to shoot UHD 4K video up to 30 fps, and super slow-motion full HD video up to 960 fps. UHD 4K videos are recorded in XAVC S MP4 format, and 1080p videos can be recorded in AVCHD MTS format.

I have not been successful in having iMovie recognize my RX10 when connected with its USB cable. It doesn't know that the camera is attached, even though the computer knows, and thus will not import videos. I've tried all of the USB settings in the camera.

Can someone give me specific instructions for importing videos via iMovie?

As mentioned above, Sony RX10 III recorded video in 4k XAVC S MP4 format and 1080p in AVCHD MTS format, while XAVC S MP4 format is the favored format for most of its users, for it brings better quality and convenient for broadcasting. The only problem usually occurred during the editing process. 

iMovie (7, 9, 11) can't ingest videos from Sony DSC-RX10 III directly mainly because you have recorded video with the the high frame rate 'HFR' videos modes that capture footage at up to 960 fps. iMovie can’t recognize such high frame rate. The easiest workaround is to convert Sony DSC-RX10 4k XAVC S MP4 format and AVCHD MTS format to iMovie native supported Apple InterMediate Codec (AIC) (*.mov) in a low frame rate without quality loss, which is the most compatible format for iMovie and make the editing work much smooth and easier.

How to Fix VLC Player Audio Sync Problems on Windows/Mac

Many of the time when we download a video clip or a movie, we find that the audio does not sync with the lips movement of the characters or the audio and video does not match in VLC Player. This kind of video clip/movie is very frustrating to watch. However we can fix such issue and make our video clip play in sync with the audio. 

How to Fix audio out of sync and syncing issues when playing a video file in VLC:

You’ll obviously need the VLC app to do this, VLC is cross platform and available for just about everything from Mac OS X to Linux and Windows and iOS, so you’ll be good to go with whatever you use.

How to Fix vlc audio sync on Windows laptop:

– Open the downloaded Video Clip in VLC. Right click on the video clip and select Open With..Select VLC from the list. 

– If the Audio comes before Video, we need to slow the audio, so press fn+K key (On laptop). Each combi keystroke will reduce the audio speed by 50ms. So keep dong it until you see the video and audio are sync. 

– If the Audio comes after the video, we need to make the audio fast, so press fn + J (On laptop) key. When you invoke the shortkey the screen will show the delay amount as shown in the below image: 


How to Fix vlc audio sync on Windows desktop:

If you have a desktop, you can try the Ctrl + K and Ctrl + J key respectively for the same result. If the shortkey key does not work , we can change the settings from preferences as follows:

– Open VLC player and click on Tools > Preferences 
– On preferences window, click on All under Show settings, Select Audio from left. 
– On the right pane look for the option Audio desynchronization compensation 

Put a negative or positive value in the box towards right…depending upon the situation.

How to Fix vlc audio sync on MAC?

For fixing the issue on MAC, the solution is quite simple. We can use the shortcut keys on the MAC for slowing and speeding the audio track to align with the video:

• F – Slow audio by 50ms
• G – Speed audio by 50ms

When you press F Key, the Decrease Audio Delay in milliseconds will get in work, while the G Key will Increase Audio Delay in milliseconds. So, depending on the delay or ahead of audio with the video, all you need is to press the keys and get the work done easily. G Keys moves the Audio forward while F key will move the Audio Backward.

Once-for-All Solution to Permanently Fix VLC Audio Sync Problem

Majority of the audio and video out of sync issue are because of improper encoding format while ripping the video. The solution has been tested with downloaded video clip, so I am not sure if it will work with such issue in all videos.

Generally speaking, applying keyboard shortcut or VLC's preference can fix the usual audio not syncing with video problem in VLC. But everything happens for a surprise. Sometimes, there are also certain cases VLC can't handle, e.g., the original video itself has serious audio delay problem; the audio out of sync problem too severe to fix. 

In fact, there is simple way to solve VLC Player audio out of sync problem.

Using Pavtube Video Converter / Mac Version will be fix this problem with ease. In this app, you can choose any popular codec to avoid audio out of sync problem. And in profile settings, you can reset video and audio size, bitrate,etc to get better video quality. You can preserve 5.1 sound with it when outputting video.

Edit QuickTime MOV, iPhone MOV, camera MOV Files to Avid Media Composer

How to import MOV files(from Apple Quicktime, iPhone video, 4k from camera) into Avid Media Composer for editing without problems. Well, although Avid claimed it supports MOV, it indicate the Avid DNxHD codec .*mov. For other codec, such as the Quicktime, iPhone video, 4k from camera .*mov files, how to import into Avid Media Composer for editing?



QuickTime MOV vs Avid Media Composer

To import QuickTime MOV files to Avid Media Composer, you will need a QuickTime AMA Plug-in, which is automatically installed when you first install your Avid editing software. The QuickTime AMA Plug-in is designed to read any Quicktime movie that will play in the QuickTime Player, however, some uncommon movies may not be supported. And the QuickTime files supported by QuickTime AMA Plug-in must meet the following specifications:

1)The QuickTime movie must contain video using only a single codec, if your timeline contains shots that use different codec, the resulting export will be mixed media and will not AMA link. If you timeline uses a single codec only, then a same as source export will create a movie of a single codec type, will will AMA link.

2) The QuickTime audio and video tracks must be the same length.

3)The file contains a maximum of 24 audio tracks.

Therefore, if the QuickTime files you are going to edit with Avid Media Composer do not comply with the above mentioned specifications, you will be not be able to get QuickTime MOV to Media Composer with QuickTime AMA Plug-in.

iPhone .*mov vs Avid Media Composer

As far as we know, the iPhone (including iPhone 6S, iPhone 6S Plus, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 5S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5C, iPhone 4S, etc.) records in MOV files compressed with H.264 codec. The H.264 codec is a final delivery codec; it is not one you want to use for editing in Avid Media Composer. To fix the problem, the easy workaround is transcode iPhone MOV to a more editing-friendly format, such an Avid's DNxHD.

Camera .*mov vs Avid Media Composer

Well, it is good for us to take high quality images and record vivid 4k and full HD videos with a good camera. A camera may include CMOS sensor, AF system, give photographers the best balance of performance, precision and low-light ability, and it mainly encodes footage save as the MOV container format with H.264 codec. According to the different specs of the different camera brands, we usually saw the camcorder users encounter importing issues when attempting to edit MOV footage with Avid Media Composer like import it slowly, and couldn't edit videos smoothly.

All-in-one solution to import .*mov files to Avid Media Composer

To solve this problem, you can transcode QuickTime MOV, iPhone MOV, camera MOV files to Avid Media Composer native support DNxHD codec, which deliveries both high efficiency and quality without compromise. For the .*mov files to DNxHD codec task, we recommended Pavtube HD Video Converter for Mac(read the review) for you.
