Hi people,
First post so be gentile
The last time I dabbled in video (home movies) was around 10 years ago with a Panasonic 3CCD camera and media studio pro ver 8 ! So the other week I upgraded my equipment and purchased a new Panasonic HC-VX870 4K camera and spent sometime this afternoon getting to know the camera. I don't have an Ultra HD tv so shot footage in 1080p 50fps, only to find out that the old software I had didn't support this format so I found and downloaded Resolve 12.5 - and on first impressions it looks really nice.
Now onto my problem. The camera has the files in an .MTS format, and I've copied these clips to a folder on the desktop and under the media section have browsed to that folder and selected a clip which then appears in the "preview" screen. If I click on the play button the clip runs but there is no sound.
I tested the clip by opening the folder in windows explorer (I'm running windows 7 pro) and clicked on play and the clip plays fine with sound.
I can browse to a different clip in a different folder in the media section of resolve and play a MOV file and that works but no matter what I try I get no audio with the new camera clips. The embedded audio shown under the audio tab doesn't show any trace on the VU meters so it's not like there is audio there and it's muted in some way. It's like the audio has been stripped from the clips.
Any suggestions ?
Regards
Malcolm
