Has anyone worked with Adobe Premiere CS3 and AVCHD?
One of my clients uses Adobe and I just want to make sure there won't be any issues.

I don't have CS3 installed here, but...
I thought CS4 was the first version of Premiere to accept AVCHD ???
You might worry a lot less if your client upgraded to CS5.5 (they seem to be running some special deals at the current time for crossgrades and upgrades.)
You can be sure that earlier versions of Premiere won't be able to read any files you shoot at 28Mbps (that means at 60p or 50p)
Also one of the advantages of the newer versions of Premiere Pro is the use of graphics card power in the Mercury Playback engine.
If anyone who still has CS3 installed would like to chime in...????
... or check in at one of the Premiere Pro forums.

Well, I loaded an FS100 AVCHD video clip (.m2ts) in PP CS3 and the only thing that played was the audio.
Bite the bullet and get PP CS5.5

Or consider ClipWrap (http://www.divergentmedia.com/clipwrap) and encode to your chosen codec?
