How do you work with Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 IV XAVC-S video in Premiere Pro? The editing performance may differ depending on your computer environment and your Premiere version. If you run into troubles dealing with Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 IV XAVC-S .mp4 clips in Adobe Premiere, you are just here in the right place. This tutorial guides you through a way of enabling Premiere to handle Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 IV XAVC-S footage smoothly.
Your computer may well be able to handle Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 IV XAVC-S files fine in Premiere. In my experience at the busy post-production house I work at, even our top spec Mac Pros will struggle very hard with a half hour or hour show comprised of XAVC-S .mp4 or XDCAM .mxf media. Problems don't just occur in playback either, Premiere can really struggle just navigating around a project with lots of non-optimized media.
They are both formats that the computer must work hard to decode and playback, and yes of course you can render previews but then you must re-render each time you make a change to the file.
In this situation, we would recommend converting Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 IV XAVC-S files to optimized DNxHD or ProRes media before start editing in Premiere.

Step 2: Click "Profile" to select output format. For Mac based Premiere, we would recommend choosing "Final Cut Pro" > "Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov)" as output format. The ProRes 422 codec will ensure a good balance between file size and file quality.
Tips: 1. This converter only outputs Apple ProRes files up to 1080p. If your source video is 4K and you want to keep its original quality, you can select "4K Video" > "4K H.264/MPEG-4 AVC Video (*.mp4)" as target format for use in Premiere. To select 4K H.264 as output, please make sure your computer has enough power to handle 4K H.264.
