ParticipantI am at my wits end, I cannot seem to find any information on how I can take the 100’s on .mts files I have and convert them to .mov files to use in FCP7.
In the past I have used mpeg streamclip, but that is because I did not have to keep the 1920×1080 specs, I was able to go lower. However for this project, I have to keep it at 1920×1080, h.264.
I have read on other posts conversion programs that cost $500, I can’t afford to do that. I have Toast 10, I can’t figure out how to convert to let it save on a hard drive, it only wants to output to a DVD.
Please help. I need to get this footage transferred this weekend.

ParticipantMPEG Streamclip can export 1920X1080, though. So I don’t understand why you still can’t use that program. Also, work with ProRes files in FCP, not H.264.
If MPEG Streamclip really isn’t working for you, have you tried Compressor?

ParticipantApple’s program, “Compressor,” should work. It used to come bundled with Final Cut Pro 7 as part of the purchased program suite (with “Motion”, “Color”, etc.).
Are there problems using “Compressor”??

ParticipantTo solve the problem, one solution is to convert the your file to FCP compatible format (MEPG4 and H.264). As far as I know, you could try DVDFab and macx dvd ripper pro. Which one is better, you’ll see.

ParticipantStop using FC "Pro", it's not so "pro" and use Sony Vegas Pro, it works with anything, unlike FCP.

ParticipantSave yourself a lot of grief and go with "ClipWrap"… was in the same situation you are in, found this software, and it works like a charm… really fast and can do batch processing… $50 I believe, but well worth it. you won't be disapointed.

ParticipantI have the same problem as you before, but when I use the MTS/M2TS Converter which recommended by my friend, I solve the problem easily. I hope this also can solve your problem.

MemberI still don't understand why so many people insist on using FCP which apparently can't handle almost all native camera formats w/o some sort of conversion!

ParticipantI also had the problem, all my mts file can not imported into fcp for editing. Finally, I have tried this https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/firecoresoft-video-converter/id696579090 to convert mts file to mov, then it can imported into fcp. You also can try it.

ParticipantThe best converter for your files would be Wondershare Video Converter Ultimate or the smaller FREE version. Google this one and you will never need another converter utility again. It's awesome!!

ParticipantI'm assuming your referrencing the C100. If so, you can just use FCP7s Log and Transfer to import the MTS files and convert to, say, ProRes.

ParticipantFree open resource FFmpeg is the only software project to convert MTS to editable QuicktimeMOV files for Apple Final Cut Pro. But you should know some computer command. For example, if you want convert the file to .AVI, there is a bunch of complex code “ffmpeg -i INPUT.MTS -vcodec libxvid -b 18000k -acodec libmp3lame -deinterlace -ab 192k -s 1280×720 -r 50 OUTPUT.avi” which you should know.As a DV photographer, I purchased Sony HDR-AX2000 which creates MTS files that can't be read directly by FCP. But I am lack of skilled computer program instructions. It couldn't seem to pick a correct encodings to get the audio and video to stay in sync.How to Convert MTS Files to Editable Quicktime MOV -

MemberCheck out Clipwrap (http://www.divergentmedia.com/clipwrap). It rewraps AVCHD, rather than transcoding it. That avoids the generational loss from transcoding.

ParticipantUpdated to Final Cut Pro X. FCP X supports AVCHD natively via the import method, as long as it is in a MOV wrapper.
