Sony NEX audio track not showing at DVinfo.net

Hi guys,

I´m currently testing CS6 and whenever I drop a NEX7 AVCHD (MTS) file on the timeline the audio track doesn´t get filed with audio. I´ve tried exporting the very same file to AVI and when I placed it on the timeline the audio track showed up. This didn´t happen on CS5.5. Any thoughts on how to solve this?

I thought this could maybe have somethings to do with me choosing the wrong sequence preset. I´ve tested "Digital SLR - 1080p - DSLR 1080p24" and then "AVCHD 1080p - AVCHD 1080p24" and it didn´t work. I´ve tried these same sequence presets on CS5.5 just now on a different computer and there is no audio problem.

Oh, and if I go to "interpret footage" the audio tab is greyed out. In CS5.5 itsn´t.
If I check properties on CS5.5 I get the audio info bellow, but no on CS6.

It finally worked. I didn´t have to copy the PRIVATE folder. I used the same file I was using for tests before. I´ve dragged the file directly from the folder and dropped it on CS6s Project Tab and it would see the audio tracks. After that I´ve tried clicking on import to import the file (like I was doind initially and it worked too)

Hi, I am also working on learning CS6 and I am on a Mac, I use a XD Cam so now problems with the files, but I have a NEX VG-20 and can't work out how to get the audio to show up. So I take the card out of the camera , put it in to the computer and it shows up as a file (privet) so I tried importing that, video is fine no audio but, so I try it a few different ways, no good, so can you let me know how I should go about getting audio and video. Thx.
