General Discussion - Mac Convert AVCHD (MTS Files from Sony ） to Avid suoying14 - Thu Aug 05, 2010 10:35 pm Post subject: Mac Convert AVCHD (MTS Files from Sony ） to Avid
Well, I'm a regular consumer of Sony Cyber-shot TX7. Overall I'm quite happy with it. In particular, I'm very satisfied with its attractive stylish and solid design(especially in dark-blue color), aggressive noise reduction algorithm, excellent in-camera panorama function, advanced Hand-held Twilight mode for low-light pictures and really nice Full High-Definition 1080 60i AVCHD video with MTS files extension.
Of course, there are also some disadvantages involved. Comparatively, Sony Cyber-shot TX7 has relatively short battery life and it lacks of audio notes recording and audio record volume control. A histogram function on pictures is also not available.
However, the real problem comes when trying to edit the AVCHD footage (MTS files) on Avid Media Composer. Unfortunately MTS file extension is not listed on the list of supported file formats by Avid. So basically I use MTS converter to convert the AVCHD files to MOV so they can be accessed via Avid Media Composer. It can be quick, quality lossless if you choose the right converting tool, for example Mac Aunsoft MTS/M2TS Converter. More than what you will expect, this stale and well performed AVCHD converting tool works as a great MTS/M2TS joiner capable of merging/combining multiple AVCHD (mts/m2ts) files to one single output video as well. P. S. you can also check the windows version of AVCHD Converter by Aunsoft Studio.
