.MTS SdHC video format help?

Question

I have a new canon Vixia HF200. It records onto a 16gig Sdhc card. I fortunately have a Panasonic TV that I can insert the card into and it plays nice picture. However, I now want to edit some of the videos. I have been trying to upload them into my computer. When I play the videos on my computer it is real glitchy. I have even saved the file and it is still real glitchy. I purchased Corel videostudio Pro X2 and it also uploads the videos and plays them slow and glitchy. My computer has no problem uploading or playing videos from other sources. And it’s strange that my panasonic tv plays them just fine. Any hints on what I can do? Can I convert the .mts file to another file type without reducing the video quality? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I've lost count of how many times I've heard people complaining that the software hasn't caught up with the hardware. That’s the case we stand with AVCHD camcorder. And seems the only thing we can easily do with the AVCHD video is to play it on an HDTV, direct from the camcorder. Isn’t there any easy way to playback and edit the AVCHD (m2ts, mts, ts, trp).



If you have not been able to take advantage of the AVCHD file format or still got no luck to get it out into the world to playback and edit.
