Summary: If you have any problem with importing or editing GoPro Hero 4K recordings in Avid Media Composer, please take few minutes to look through this article. You may get some tips after reading it.
The maximum resolution GoPro Hero 4 is able to shoot is 4K (actually 3840x2160) MP4 videos. Sometimes you may find that you couldn’t import and edit GoPro Hero 4 4K recordings in Avid Media Composer smoothly when you were trying to polish these 4K videos in it on Mac. It should be noted that here if the resolution of your Mac is much lower than 3840x2160 or HDD on Mac is too old, GoPro Hero 4 4K recordings will cause Avid Media Composer isn’t able to polish them smoothly.
For importing and editing GoPro Hero 4K in Avid Media Composer smoothly, I would suggest you to install a professional third-party App to downgrade GoPro Hero 4 4K recordings to 1080p (1920 x 1080) and transcode the MP4 recordings to MOV format which is encoded in DNxHD codec. As far as we know, DNxHD MOV format is the most suitable format for Avid Media Composer.
Here I would introduce a proper App for you - Pavtube HD Video Converter for Mac. This App is able to downgrade 4K to 1080p with just few clicks. It also provides hundreds of preset output profiles (including Avid Media Composer) for you. In the meantime, the App supports for adding watermarks to GoPro Hero 4 4K recordings for Copyright or just for fun.
If you need a Windows version, please turn to Pavtube HD Video Converter.
