AVCHD (Advanced Video Coding High Definition), often with the file extension of mts, m2ts or mt2, is a professional digital recording format for Sony, Panasonic, Canon and more camcorders and cameras. Though Final Cut Pro HD/6.0/7/X announced to support AVCHD video files, some AVCHD files still can not imported to Final Cut Pro HD/6.0/7/X: AVCHD support is available only on Intel-based Macintosh computers; FCP only supports AVCHD camcorders typically connect to computers via USB 2.0, not FireWire; DVD-based AVCHD camcorders are not currently supported by Final Cut Pro HD/6.0/7/X; Standard definition video recorded with AVCHD camcorders cannot be accessed in Final Cut Pro HD/6.0/7/X.

In order to import all kinds of AVCHD to Final Cut Pro HD/6.0/7/X successfully, it is better to convert AVCHD in MTS, M2T, M2TS to Apple ProRes 422 which works well with Final Cut Pro HD/6.0/7/X.

Use a card reader to copy and transfer the .mts, m2ts files to iMac hard drive disk, run Mac MTS Converter as the fast Mac MTS to ProRes Converter, and click the “Add” button to load the .mts videos. You can also use the drag-and-drop method to load the 1080p .mts files to the application UI.



[b]Step 2. Choose outout format

Press “Format” option and navigate the mouse cursor to choose “Format > Final Cut Pro > Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov)” as the best codec for FCP 6/7 and FCP X on Mac.

Step 3. You can click “settings” button in the main interface to customize the output video’s parameters, such as resolution, frame rate, etc.



Step 4. You can edit the MTS video before you convert AVCHD MTS/M2TS/M2T to ProRes MOV.

By clicking “Edit” button, you can trim, crop the video, or add watermark and adjust effect to the videos which you will convert.



Trim – Choose to reserve the part you need. Just choose the chapter which you need to trim, to set “start time” or “end time”, type the portion which you want to save.

Effect – Adjust the effects by adjusting the parameters, such as:

*High contrast XGA OLED Tru-Finder
*Quad Capsule Spatial Array Microphone for high-quality stereo and 5.1ch sound

While, after recording, we may need to import Sony AVCHD footages to Final Cut for editing, but, Sony NEX-VG30 recorded videos are in AVCHD format, which is not compatible with many editing software, such as FCP 6/7, FCP X and FCE on Mac. Final Cut software doesn’t supports AVCHD well- it takes much time to render.

As far as we know the 1080 60p AVCHD flies from Sony VG30 would not be ingested natively into Final Cut Pro 6/7 and FCP X. Even if you can apply the Log and Transfer plug-in with FCP 7 to import the AVCHD footages successfully, you would actually not be satisfied with the transcoded Apple ProRes 422 LT files(The Log & Transfer can do the AVCHD to Apple ProRes422 LT conversion work for you as a background converter). So, any solution to solve the problems?

Want to find the answer? The best solution is to convert Sony NEX-VG30 AVCHD MTS footage to ProRes codec MOV format on Mac OS X, which is best supported by FCP 6/7/X. The below is a brief guide for beginners.

Step 3. Click format bar to choose the output format. Click and choose Final Cut Pro -> Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov). Well, Apple PreRes 422(HQ), Apple ProRes 422(LT), Apple ProRes(Proxy), etc are all the proper choice for you.



Note: If you are a FCP 6 or former version user, you only can choose ProRes 422 and ProRes 422 HQ as the output format.

Step 4. You can click the Settings icon to do some audio/video settings. We recommend 1920*1080 as video size and 30fps as video bitrate for later easy editing in Final Cut Pro.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX80, a point-and-shoot camera, is structured around a 1/2.3″ 16.2-megapixel Exmor R CMOS image sensor. The WX80 equipped with 16.2MP Exmor R CMOS Sensor and BIONZ Image Processor, combination of these two technologies enables an expandable sensitivity to ISO 12800, a fast continuous shooting rate of 10 full resolution frames-per-second, and full HD 1080i video at 60fps in the AVCHD format.

I just bought the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX80 camera and recorded many 1080/60i AVCHD clips during the weekend. The codec is MPEG4. Regarding footage editing, Final Cut Pro is a great choice for either video hobbyists or independent filmmakers. To import Sony AVCHD footage to FCP correctly, Final Cut Pro (FCP 6/FCP 7) requires the directory structure of the Cyber-shot DSC-WX80 footage must be the same as when it was recorded to the card. If you’ve copied your footage onto a hard drive or other storage media and only kept part of the file structure you’re going to be presented with an unsupported media error message like this one…



Also, AVCHD clips may not import if the folder structure written by the camera to the card is altered, so avoid manually moving files away from the locations to which the camera wrote them originally. Leave the folder structure on the card as the camera wrote it. And the bottom line, Final Cut Pro can't natively support AVCHD videos well.

In case that you encountered import issues while handling Cyber-shot DSC-WX80 MTS clips with FCP 6 or FCP 7, you can consider converting these AVCHD .mts/.m2ts content to a format that is best suited for Final Cut Pro, such as Apple ProRes 422. You can fast and easily get the work done along with the help from Brorsoft MTS/M2TS Converter for Mac. It can help you transcode Sony DSC-WX80 AVCHD to Apple ProRes 422, ProRes 422 HD, ProRes 422 Proxy, ProRes 422 LT, etc on Mac OS X(Mountain Lion included). What’s more, it can deinterlace the DSC-WX80 1080i footage to make the converted files more smoothly in Final Cut products. Just download the tool and guide on how to deinterlace and convert Sony DSC-WX80 1080/60i MTS to FCP 6/7.

Sony DSC-WX80 and FCP workflow: transcode AVCHD footage to ProRes 422 for FCP 6/7

Step 1: Add AVCHD footage

Launch the best Mac Sony AVCHD Converter. Click “Add video” or “Add from folder” icon to load your source files directly from your Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX80 camera, or from a card reader, or from the file folder that contains the source MTS videos stored on your Mac computer’s hard disk drive.



Step 2: Select output format for FCP 6/7

As soon as source files are loaded, click “Format” pull down menu to choose “Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov)” as output format from “Final Cut Pro” option.



Step 3: Start AVCHD to ProRes 422 conversion

Click the big button “Convert” to begin rewrapping Sony MTS to Apple ProRes 422 for FCP 6/7.

Summary: Want to edit P2HD .mxf videos from Panasonic AG-HPX600 with Sony Vegas Pro? Can you successfully put these files to Vegas Pro? Have you known some tips for importing .MXF files to Vegas Pro? Simply follow this post, you will be clear.

Just got Panasonic’s new P2HD camcorder AG-HPX600 for days. I like the HD cam very much with its 4:2:2 AVC-Intra recording. It is belong to new series of memory cards called microP2 card ( Awesome! ), which have an SD card form factor to further cost-efficiencies in media pricing. But I was disappointed I couldn’t directly get PX600 AVC-Intra MXF to my Sony Vegas for further editing. So, I wanted to know is there a way to make HPX600 footages compatible for Vegas Pro?



At first, I tried to download and use several P2 MXF plug-ins to help me bring the file to Vegas, but I failed. Fortunately, I did find an easy optional method to import HPX600 files to Vegas. That is to convert Panasonic P2 MXF to MPEG-2, a highly compatible format for Sony Vegas with a third-party software..

I’ve got a professional MXF to Sony Vegas Converter on my computer, which can transcode the unsupported AVC-Intra MXF file to an ideal editing format e.g. MPEG-2 or WMV for Vegas Pro keeping the original video quality.
