How To Transfer Video From Panasonic PV-GS500 to iMovie and Adobe Premier CC 2015

How To Transfer Video From Panasonic PV-GS500 to iMovie and Adobe Premier CC 2015

I noticed that some people had difficulty transferring video from their Panasonic PV-GS500 camcorder.  The solution for me came when I found a DV to Firewire cable.  I used the bottom connector as shown below for the camera connection and the Firewire 400 went into the Mac laptop.

Image shows the left side of the camera, the swing out video display side with some connectors behind the display when the video monitor is swung out. I used the bottom connector marked “DV” to insert my Firewire cable.

The computer I used is a Macintosh Macbook Pro, 15 inch Early 2008 and OSX Yosemite.

What was really wonderful was that both programs immediately recognized the transfer and both programs allowed me to control the camera from the software.  For Premier I had to choose “Capture” to make Premier “see” the camera.  I could completely control the camera from the iMovie application and Adobe Premier Pro CC (2015).  I really prefer to use Premier Pro.  It has a definite learning curve but you get a ton of options and a lot of different methods to work the project.  I found that iMovie would really overheat my laptop while Premier allowed my computer to run cool.  The Premier editing options are really terrific.

I love to walk away from the capture process some times and I know that in iMovie it is so easy to cut out the extra blue screen out.  I think I am correct in this.  Premier puts my computer capture process into pause at the end of the clip, thus saving me some editing.

I hope this helps you.

Europe vs Middle East vs North Africa

Europe vs Middle East vs North Africa

The influx from the Middle East and North Africa of individuals fleeing war and conflict is a powerful indicator of how the political and social systems of both those areas of the globe are so wrongly administered by the rulers whether they are religious, political, royalty, oligarch or dictators.

This problem also indicates how utterly lame and useless the United Nations is.

This problem also may seem to point a finger at past political decisions were made in error.  Example is the First World War where Germany was treated like a vessel state.  The results from the Second World War which carved up parts of the Middle East, failed to follow ethnic, religious and tribal borders.   The United Nations inserted a Jewish state and denied Palestine its soverignty due to its procedural failures (“the U.N. effectively acted to prevent the establishment of an independent and democratic state of Palestine”).  Europe and the United States overthrew the ruler of Libya turning that county into a tribal war zone.  The Untied States invaded Iraq which also unleashed ethnic, tribal and religious conflict.  It seems that the “civilized” nations are utterly incompetent in successfully solving world problems and when they do get involved, make matters worse.

So, now we have a real mess on our hands with individuals from the Middle East and North Africa trying to migrate to a more safe and sane environment.

The expected result for Europe is a shift to conservative politics, increase in local terrorism, increase in unemployment, and increased burden upon social services such as health care and police.

Why Donald Trump Numbers Go Up – Me vs We Attitude

Why Donald Trump Numbers Go Up – Me vs We Attitude

It is quite natural for just about every person to take on a self centered selfish view.  A significant part of becoming a mature individual is to share and help others.  Some individuals just never feel the need or see the value of including others for consideration.  They even feel that everyone should make them happy.

The Democrats seem to represent the WE viewpoint while the Republicans seem to represent the ME outlook.  The Republican Party is also the oligarch party, the party for the rich to keep their riches.

Political Examples:  Oligarchs wish to keep their wealth.   They will support every candidate and legislation to minimize taxes.  They fail to see the value of raising the whole boat.  Their boat is a luxury yacht separate from the boat the rest of society uses.  History shows that the United States was more equal when the tax rate upon the rich was 69%.  “In 2007, by contrast, America’s 400 highest earners paid just 18.1 percent of their total incomes, after loopholes, in federal taxes.”

If you surround yourself with like minded people, you are more likely to accept the group view.  Parents typically hold a lot of sway over their children.  Religious schools, religious colleges, NRA,  political party membership, also fall into this category.

Ronald Regan before he married his second wife was a Democrat.  His second wife and more importantly a rich father in law influenced Regan to switch to become Republican.

Being a part of a like minded group can to some extent cement a person in place from reviewing the basis for their beliefs and looking at the facts from a fresh perspective.

Why Donald Trump Numbers Go Up – Failure To Properly Evaluate

I personally have noticed that even well educated individuals can utterly fail to properly process known facts.  Individuals who reject the global warming issues are a wonderful example.  They reject the overwhelming evidence.  I have an acquaintance who was a electronic engineer before retirement.  His father was forced to be a union member and evidently the union bosses may have been corrupt.  The father’s views about unions imparted the son to be anti union, anti progressive and pro Republican.  This person vehemently denies that global warming is occurring.  An indicator of this behavior is the process that these people seem to cherry pick their “facts” to support their prejudice political views.
