Answers.Text: thanks for that, but the provided thread explained how to use gopro movie on CS4. On CS4, you need to convert the video and use it in AVCHD. In CS5.5 you don't need to convert the video. Is it still AVCHD ?

Answers.Text: Yeah, I noticed it was CS4. Was hoping it'd be the same. Give AVCHD a go and see if it works.

Answers.Body: <p>GoPro video files are basically the old Cineform Neoscene. GoPro bought them out. Cineform files have always worked in Premiere. I use them right in Premiere without any conversion. It is batter than the DSLR format. I convert all my Canon footage to the GoPro code before editing. </p>
  
  <p>Just make your own preset and save it. </p>

ThreadText: # What sequence presets I must use with a GoPro and Adobe Premiere Pro CS 5.5?
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2012-02-16)
  
  I use a GoPro which output is mp4 files.
  
  I want to edit these movies into Adobe Premiere Pro CS 5.5. I'm a little lost about sequence presets to use.
  
  I've got the choice between Digital SLR, AVCHD, XDCam, HDV... wow... I don't understand the differences between each other because when I use one or other, it seems to be the same. My gopro movie has a yellow bar at the top, saying that it needs rendering.
  
  So, what's the difference with all of these formats and what's the best format to use with my GoPro ?

  In Premiere, a possible, easy approach would be importing your footage to the library before creating any sequence, then right click a clip and choose 'New Sequence from Clip'. Premiere will automatically adjust the settings according to the clip's properties.
