How to convert AVCHD (Sony MTS) to mpeg or to iPad on Snow leopard
AVCHD stands for “Advanced Video Codec High Definition.” The format was jointly established by both Panasonic and Sony in 2006. MTS files can typically be opened and edited using the software included with Sony and Panasonic HD camcorders.
Sony and Panasonic released the first AVCHD camcorders in autumn of 2006, followed by Canon and JVC. Favorable comparisons of AVCHD against HDV and XDCAM EX solidified perception of AVCHD as a format acceptable for professional usage. As the standard matured, Panasonic released the first professional AVCHD camcorder in autumn of 2008, followed by Sony in the first quarter of 2010.
AVCHD specification allows using recordable DVD discs, memory cards, non-removable solid-state memory and hard disk drives as recording media. AVCHD camcorders are file-based and do not use magnetic tape.
However, I found many people want to know how to convert Sony MTS on snow leopard as below.
Q1: Importing raw .mts files into iMovie 09 for mac?
I’d like to be able to import files from my sony HDR-SR5 camera into my mac. I did it successfully just a week ago, without little trouble. The only difference now is that instead of iMovie opening when I plud my camera in, iPhoto opens. And, when I click on the camera import button it comes up as built in i-sight camera, not the files on my camera. What am I doing wrong?
