What cameras are in the "not affected" list, and are there any users who find a problem with them?
Stan: The NOT AFFECTED list here is unreliable at best, and bogus at worst. I would not put any confidence into it, if I were you.
This whole thread is based on the extremely flawed premise that AVCHD files from only some camcorders are being affected.
Making such an assumption is invalid for these reasons:
1) The AVCHD format is a highly defined industry standard. The notion that either Panasonic or Sony, or even Canon, would stray from that format with some camcorders makes no sense at all.
2) Adobe does not provide any documentation at all on how to properly import spanned AVCHD clips in Premiere Pro. Because of that, most people are totally unaware of the need to use the Media Browser to import such clips. Consequently, they would never encounter the bug.
3) The list itself does not point out the obvious inconsistencies in it. For example, Jim Simon claims that a long list of Panasonic camcorders are not affected. Yet myself and another person have both reported encountering this problem with the Panasonic AG-AC130, one of the camcorders he listed.
And the reports of no problems with some Canon Vixia camcorders are equally suspect in my opinion, as other people ( including myself ) have duplicated the bug with other Canon Vixia models. Why would some Vixia models have a problem, and not others?
4) Finally, we have seen no statements from anyone at Adobe stating that they are having problems duplicating this bug. So we have no official confirmation from Adobe that they are seeing this bug only on some AVCHD camcorders. Without such confirmation from Adobe, this all adds up to nothing more than a bunch of speculation, in my opinion.
The very fact that Adobe claims that the bug has been eliminated in Adobe CC would further indicate to me that Adobe is aware of the nature of this bug.
