Last time when I still used Hero2, my Adobe Premier Pro cs6 have no problem at all, but since I use my hero3, my Adobe Premier Pro cs6 started to have lag for playback. Why? Help me! I can’t edit my video if this problem not fix. It is about size of video hero3 or fps of video or my computer?

The Hero3 Black Edition is the world's most versatile camera. It’s capable of capturing ultra-wide 1440p 48fps, 1080p 60 fps and 720p 120 fps Video. In brief, the Hero 3 is 1/3 smaller than old one, and brings you much better video quality. Problems occurred when the users tried to import GoPro Hero3 video to Adobe Premier Pro for movie editing, including the recent version Premiere Pro CS6 like the above user complained. It seems that Adobe Premier Pro lag with Hero3 footage.

To solve the Hero3 video import problem, we did the tests. We played GoPro Hero3 1080p video in QuickTime, it plays smoothly, but in CS6 it lags when we play it back without even rendering it. Finally, we found out that if video more than 30fps will lag in Premier Pro. So, how to get GoPro Hero3 1080 60p MP4 files into Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 smoothly? We will need to convert Hero3 108060p MP4 to MPEG-2 with 30fps, which will be much easier and faster to edit in Adobe Premiere Pro.

Now, get the tutorial on converting GoPro Hero3 1080 60p MP4 files into Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 on Mac.

Step 1: Launch the GoPro Hero3 Video Converter for Mac and load your 1080 60p MP4 files from your camera.

Step 2: Click the Format box; select Adobe Premiere/Sony Vegas> MPEG-2(*.mpg) as the best video format for Premiere Pro.

Step 3: To get a perfect video for editing in Premier Pro CS6(CS3/CS4/CS5/CS5.5 included), you’d better press the Settings icon to set the video size as 1920*1080, frame rate as 30fps in the Profiles Settings panel.
Note: For MPEG-2(*.mpg) output format, 30fps is the highest frame rate which can be recognized in Adobe Premier Pro. If you really want to keep the original frame rate, you’d better choose Adobe Premiere/Sony Vegas --> WMV (VC-1) (*.wmv) as the export format.
