Problems with Canon HF100 1080i footage

[Harald1234]

Hello,
I am having issues with footage from a Canon HF100 camcorder (1080i, PAL version). I am using the Smart Cutter trial version 1.3.2.
At the cuts sometimes there are acoustic noise, interlacing artefacts in horizontal moves and stutters.
Moreover the smart cutter output cannot be used with a Sony Bravia KDL-46EX505 LCD-TV set which accepts the original HF100 material.
On the Sony Bravia KDL-46EX505 TV there is stutter, block artefacts and a/v-async at every cut point.
Did someone use the smart cutter for Canon HF100/PAL/1080i footage successfully?
Best regards,
Harald

Dear Harald1234:
Thanks for your message.

Could you please send us a video sample for a test?

It would be better if the sample file size is less than 100 MB.

If you can not find small sample, use this simple tool to split your movie file into small pieces, and upload any one of them.

-------------------------------------
before uploading sample, please create sub-directory with your name under the root, then upload sample to this sub-directory.

FULL priviliged --- mkdir, read, write, remove
Will be helpful to limit the sample file size under 100MB.
Thank you.

Dear Fame Ring Support Team,
many thanks for your fast reply. I have uploaded 3 samples to the new directory "Canon HF100 1080i" of your ftp server.
The filenames indicate the type of problem.
I am using Windows Vista Home Premium and WMP11, Nero Showtime 4 and Power DVD 8 for playback.
Best regards,
Harald
