Newest Way Editing Samsung NX1 H.265 in Premiere Pro/Sony Vegas Pro

Trapped in the trouble of H.265 footage shot by Samsung NX1 camcorder? How much do you know about the latest codec H.265? Do you think it is only the upgraded version of the former H.264? Whatever, this new H.265 footage seems not so friendly with Adobe Premiere Pro and Sony Vegas Pro, so we need to find some solutions to get rid of the trouble. In this article you can receive some efficient solutions here. 

 

Professional explanation of H.265/HEVC codec: 

H.265/High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) is a video compression standard, a successor to H.264/MPEG-4 AVC (Advanced Video Coding), that was jointly developed by the ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) and ITU-T Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG). HEVC is said to double the data compression ratio compared to H.264/MPEG-4 AVC at the same level of video quality. (Let's Have an Intensive Talking on H.265/HEVC

What's the Prospect and benefit of H.265 codec? 

H.265 is the codec of the future, we have advanced to that time, and rolling a way back machine back to now, by giving to users an affordable and easy HEVC video converter. See the results yourself With the H.265 encoder incorporated on Cinec we achieved the following result, by converting a ProRes file of 550MB to a H.265 5MB file with almost no noticeable difference at normal screens, look yourself.

Key features of Samsung NX1 camcorder: 
  • 4K (DCI 4K & UHD) video recording using H.265 codec 
  • Can output 4:2:0 8-bit 4K video over HDMI 
  • Stripe pattern AF illuminator with 15m range 
  • Weather-resistant magnesium alloy body 
  • USB 3.0 interface 
  • Optional battery grip


What a pity that the output footage H.264 cannot be accept well by Adobe Premiere/Sony Vegas! In order to get a nice watching of these videos, we need to do some changes. Luckily, we have the PavtubeNX1 H.265 Video Converter, with the upgraded version 4.8.2.0, it can work the H.265/HEVC codec well. As we all know the best codec for Adobe Premiere and Sony Vegas is MPEG-2, so we just transcode our NX1 H.265 footage to MPEG, right? Let's do it!

Guide on how to transcode H.265 from Samsung NX1 to MPEG for editing in Adobe Premiere Pro and Sony Vegas Pro. 

Step 1. Load your H.265 files into this best H.265 Video converter.

Step 2. Choose "MPEG-2 (*.mpg)" as your output format 

Come to the output list, just select the suitable formats for Adobe and Sony Vegas. Tap the 'MPEG' in the searching box is okay. Or drop down the list, nearly on the bottom of the list, we can find the 'Adobe Premiere Pro/Sony Vegas' >>'MPEG-2 mpg' there. Just as follows: 

 

Tips: Encode your original videos to H.265 codec for enjoying with nice effects? On the output list, select the 'HD Video'>>'H.265 HD Video(*.mp4) there. I have to mention you that though H.265 coded has the higher definition, it will take you much more time to work with. (Convert H.264, MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, FLV to H.265 video

 

According to the workflow, usually for those advanced users, it is not a bad idea to adjust the output videos in the 'Settings' button. Such as the 'video codec', video size, bitrates or even the audio channels. Surely you can leave the default as usual. 

 

At the end of this paper, if you have finished the preparation, back to the main interface, just hit the 'Convert' to get this NX1 H.265 to MPEG-2 conversion started. Or any other suggestions or better methods you can leave the message below, okay?

'Last sunday I made my first shot with FDR-AX100. Then I edit the video with PowerDirector13 Ultra. I create 2 exports: One 4K-to-1080p H264 codec and One 4K-to-1080p H265 codec. Both videos are MP4 conteiners. In order to freely transcode the H.265 and H.264 to each other no matter for editing in NELs or playing on media players, I'm looking for a professional video converter that can work the issues well. Any good suggestions?' 

Pavtube Video Converter - Best H.264/H.265 converter for us! 

From H.264 to H.265, we can fully take advantage of the higher quality and smaller size. While from H.265 to H.264, it can help us edit or play H.265 videos on NELs and players much more eaisly.

Step 2. Next, let's come to the output list for more details, there are some main changes we should know better in this new version. Such as the added item 'H.264 Baseline/Main/High' three standards we can choose as we want. Usually, for some older devices, we can choose the baseline for the best, but for new, we always choose the 'High' to get the best quality. 

 

What's more, we can see the added 'HD Video>>H.265 HD Video(*/mp4)', here we can transcode our video to H.265 codec. With the smallest body of H.265 videos, I'm afraid it will take us a lot of time.
