Summary: AVCHD files not playing in VLC? In this article, I will share my experience and offer an easy way to help you play Sony AVCHD .mts videos with VLC media player freely on Mac OS X Yosemite or Mavericks.

Introduction:
I seem to be the the band's servant for recording our concerts. They want free DVDs but I may quit the band. As I like freely movie making and I have done many videos for my own original music on Youtube. Recently, I find some interesting videos about a concert at the Michigan State University Community Music School of Detroit featuring the beginning band, the advanced band and the jazz band. Now I collect various footage, some I use are stolen footage from YouTube, some usually from different cameras owned by friends. Most recently a Sony Handycam. Posting at the YouTube channel of the MSU Detroit Community Music School or the band director's channel, but definitely not my channel.



This time my project required importing MTS video files from my buddy's Sony camcorder. The files would play in VLC, but would not import into any of the converter apps I already had installed (e.g., MPEG Streamclip). I use Duck Duck Go for search, because I distrust Google and I guard my privacy. I did a search for "Mac MTS to QuickTime convertor" and the Pavtube MTS/M2TS Converter for Mac came up high on the list, so I bought that for $29. I was not a careful shopper -- I blame my pushy friend for this.

I like the wide variety of formats Pavtube converts and use it directly convert MTS video to VLC readable formats, Apple ProRes for FCP, Apple Intermediate Codec for FCE editing. Also I have used MPEG Streamclip for years. I like that because it genuinely is free. Although I may have sent them money as shareware. For freeware, it has a better interface than Pavtube.

In fact, VLC player is a powerful media player for viewing movies or videos on Mac and Windows. While, I find problems with low video quality or incapability of MTS video playback with VLC. An quick workaround I find to solve the issues is to convert the MTS files from Sony to common formats (like MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, MPEG, etc.) to fit the local VLC media player with Mac MTS to VLC Converter from Pavtube. If you are Windows users, you can try MTS/M2TS Converter.

Overall, this program works successfully in MTS to MP4 conversion even you have a bunch of large MTS files. I have tried it to encode MTS to MP4, it turns out playing Canon, Sony, Panasonic MTS on Mac smoothly and at original quality. It's the best software application for Mac users. What's more, this converter also supports many of other video formats like MOV, MKV, AVI, WMV, FLV, MPG, SWF, etc. on Mac(Yosemite and Mavericks included).

Below is easy steps for you, you can convert Sony MTS to VLC player compatible formats for watching in few steps.

How to convert Sony MTS video files for VLC playback freely?

Step 1: Add mts video files

Run MTS to VLC Converter for Mac on your Mac computer. Transfer the individual .MTS file or MTS file structure from Sony to HDD first, and then click add to import the video files to the converter.



Step 2: Choose H.264 MP4 as output format.

In "Format" drop down list box, you may select best video format for plaing on Mac. To convert Sony MTS to MP4 format, if you want to get common MP4 files for playback, you can choose Common Video -> H.264 Video (*.mp4); if you want to get HD MP4 files to use, you can choose HD Video -> H.264 HD Video (*.mp4).



Step 3: Start Convert

Click "Convert" in the main interface to start transcoding Sony MTS footage to Mac H.264 MP4.

After conversion, you can use converted MP4 files for playback easiliy and smoothly.

As a teacher who teaches video production in the studying courses, I'm trying to use my Sony A7II camera to shoot some recordings of my students and pick them out to show in the Students' Film Festival', I need to edit the output videos on my Mac, I installed FCP X there.

Summary: MXF files not reading in Premiere Pro CS6! If you get the importing error message while importing Sony PMW-200 XDCAM MXF media files to Adobe Premiere Pro CS6, the MXF to Premiere Pro CS6 Converter will be the best solution for you.

Sony have been listening and as a result of customer feedback they developed the new PMW-200 handheld camcorder. Designed to meet the needs of broadcast productions the camera records on to solid state media using 50 Mbit/s 4:2:2 XDCAM HD. This is the exact same codec as used in the highly regarded PDW-700, F800 and PMW-500 shoulder mount broadcast camcorders.



I had a friend do me a favor, let me borrow his Sony PMW-200- a great looking camera - for a shoot. While my workflow with Sony Vegas works perfectly with these files, but my Premiere don't always have the codec for .mxf files. Well I would like to say Adobe Premier Pro imports and edits XDCAM formats in the native recording codec. So to edit Sony PMW-200 XDCAM media in Adobe Premiere smoothly, the easy workaround is to transcode Sony XDCAM MXF to MPEG-2 or MOV or WMV format which is friendly with Premiere. Here listed a step-to-step guide.

It can generates best editing format/codec for filmmakers and video enthusiasts to use in different NLE apps, such as Adobe Premiere Pro CC/CS, After Effects CS/CC, iMovie, FCE, FCP, Avid Media Composer, and more. If you are on Window PC, please get the MXF Converter. Just download it and follow the workflow using Adobe Premiere Pro with Sony PMW-200 XDCAM on Windows or Mac.


How to convert Sony PMW-200 XDCAM MXF to Adobe Premiere Pro editable format?

Step 1. Connect your Sony PMW-200 XDCAM HD422 camcorder to Mac and keep it on, or use a card reader to transfer your footage to Mac. Get this Sony MXF to Adobe Converter installed, click top left two icons to load individual videos or the entire folder correspondingly.



Step 2. Choose best format for editing in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.

Click the drop-down list besides "Format", choose "Adobe Premiere > MOV(AVC)(*.mov)" as the most compatible format as well as best video quality for CS5. You can also choose "MPEG-2 (*.mpg)", "WMV (VC-1) (*.wmv)" or Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov).



Step 3. Adjust output video settings including video size, codec, bitrate, frame rate by clicking "Settings", all according to your needs.



Step 4. Click the big red circle to start the Sony PMW-200 XDCAM MXF conversion for Premiere Pro. Wait for a while, you can get the fresh hot converted XDCAM MXF video which is compatible with Adobe Premiere Pro on Mac Yosemite/Mavericks.

This H.264 codec to FCP X workflow is the highest quality and best practice to transcode/prepare H.264 footage to Apple ProRes (HQ) and import ProRes into FCP X for diting on Mac OS X (Yosemite and Mavericks included).




Question 1: H.264 vs Apple ProRes 422 Question - Urgent for Film

Hello,I've completed editing a film in FCP X with Apple ProRes 422 clips at 1920×1080. I sent a cut clip from the timeline to a SFX person via dropbox. He sent the polished clip (with the new SFX) back in H.264; he's not working on a Mac because he doesn't own one. I imported the new H.264 clip into my timeline and everything looks great. Question: Does this matter? Does it matter that a clip in the timeline is H.264, while all the others are in Apple ProRes 422 clips (the ones that didn't need effects)? My guess is that it's not because H.264 is a finishing format but I want to be sure. Thank you in advance for helping out. Much appreciated.

One of the most common questions that I get from people regarding the new breed of DLSR cameras is "What's your post-workflow?"

Question 2: H.264 vs ProRes 422

Hey, i was reading this post the other day where you guys were talking about apple's ProRes 422.

i want to know if there is a high difference working with them, i have done a few projects with Final Cut Pro using the raw H.264 footage from my 60D without knowing about the pro res. Then i red the post and i wanted to test it out so i converted a few clips with compressor too see the difference while editing or rendering and i couldnt find much.

What do you think?

Question 3: Apple ProRes vs H.264

What's the difference between the Apple ProRes codec, the Apple ProRess HQ codec and the H.264 codec. I know the filesize of the ProRess is much more then the H.264, but what's the real difference??

Question 4: Apple ProRes 422 vs. H.264 Editing w/ FCP X

I am editing a project on Final Cut Pro X and was curious what format my video files should be for editing. I know ProRes 422 is a codec that pros use to edit and it has a much bigger file size, but I don't get the difference and which format I should be using to edit my project. Can someone please explain to me which format I should be editing on for my project! Thanks!

Solution:

No matter you are a filmmaker, multimedia professional or still photographer, Canon or Nikon camera will be a choice due to its highly mobile, lightweight features including Canon 5D Mark, Canon EOS 650D, Canon PowrShot G1 X, Canon SX40, Canon ESO-1DX, Canon EOS 7D/5D, Canon EOS 60D, Canon EOS 550D, Canon EOS 500D, Nikon D5100, Nikon D3100 Nikon D800, and more. What these cameras have in common is that they can record 1080p H.264 codec MOV footages.

H.264 (an MPEG-4 variation) is an aquistion (camera) and distribution (web streaming) codec. It's highly compressed, which means that the files are small, and Final Cut has to do extra work each time you play your timeline, make an edit, etc.

Apple ProRes 422 is an editing codec. It uses much less compression, which means that the files are big, but Final Cut can play it more easily.

Best practice is to edit in ProRes 422, especially if you have lots of layers and effects. That means you spend a little extra time optimizing your files to ProRes 422 before you start, but you save time in the long run.

As you got into more complicated editing such as adding multiple clips and transitions and effects you would start to see a more pronounced difference, i.e. FCP would need to render more often and editing wouldn't be a smooth. H.264 is really optimized to be a delivery codec while ProRes is optimized to be an editing codec. That said, if you just need to do a simple edit and your Mac has the power to edit H.264 you can get away with it no problem, but if you plan to do a heavy edit with lots of transitions and effects and color grading you will be best served by ProRes.

Just an alternative solution: Pavtube H.264 to ProRes Codec Converter which is able to convert H.264 videos to Apple ProRes 422 HQ (*.mov), Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov), Apple ProRes 422 (LT) (*.mov), Apple ProRes 422 (Proxy) (*.mov) and ProRes 4444 (*.mov).
