How to import and edit Panasonic Lumix S9 4K H.265 videos in Premiere Pro 20023 smoothly? Why my After Effects can't play the loaded Lumix S9 videos? The Panasonic Lumix S9 is the newest addition to Panasonic's line of full-frame mirrorless cameras, though it differs considerably from previous models. It is the ultimate tool for content creators looking to stand out in social media, with superior image quality, easy-to-use functions, and a sleek colorful design.
When Premiere Pro and After Effects users attempt to import H.265 videos captured by Panasonic Lumix S9, they may meet problems of one kind or another. H.265 is the successor to the widely used H.264. H.265 is getting increasingly popular and becomes the preferred codec to encode 4K recordings. Adobe claims that the handling of H.265 media has been improved in Premiere Pro and After Effects. However, the fact is that even the latest Premeire Pro and After Effects still cannot be fully compatible with Panasonic Lumix S9 4K H.265 videos well, let alone the older version of Premeire Pro CC, CS7, CS6 and After Effects CC. Below are 3 typical frequently asked questions quoted from the forums:
"Whenever I try to import 4K Lumix S9 .MOV (H.265) files into the timeline in Premiere Pro, only the audio shows up. I have searched and searched, and can't find any really solid information about this. I know Premiere Pro can handle 4K footage. But this Lumix S9 footage has me baffled."
"Premiere Pro Crashed with Lumix S9 H.265 10 bit clips -- I a'm a licensed user. (I buy Premeire Pro CC and now update the Pro version) When i try to import the H.265, 4k LongGop, 10 bit, 420, 200 mbit (Lumix S9) video clips (15 clips, around 20 GB ) the Premiere Pro is crashed... always crashed. This problem in Premiere or some issue by Windows? What i should do? Help Please! I want comfort work with Luix S9 footages. Thanks a LOT!"
"Hi all I can't seem to use my Lumix S9 H265 footage in After Effects CC IT'S IN 4K. Any help appreciated. Tried converting with vlc but didn't work."
