3. Basic Knowledge about AVCHD
Short for Advanced Video Coding High Definition, AVCHD is a file-based format for the digital
recording and playback of high-definition video. Designed by Sony and Panasonic, AVCHD is now
adopted by many manufacturers, including: Canon, Hitachi, JVC, Leica Camera, Panasonic and
Sony.
AVCHD video format is commonly used for Video
stream (always H.264), 1440×1080 interlaced,
1920×1080 interlaced, 1920×1080 progressive,
NTSC and PAL variations of the above and Dolby
Digital stereo or 5.1 surround sound.
You could get an overview of the supported video
resolutions and audio formats on the AVCHD Co-
producers web site. AVCHD files are stored with
a .MTS or .m2ts file extension, depending on the
camera brand and whether you are copying to a
Mac or PC. There is no difference in the contents
of the video files with the different extensions.

4. A new AVCHD variant called "AVCHD Lite" was designed and released to support a
maximum resolution of 1280×720 progressive and uses a less intensive video
compression algorithm than full strength AVCHD. The simplified compression makes
AVCHD Lite easier to implement on lower-end hardware. Panasonic have been the
first company to implement this spec, adding AVCHD Lite video recording to their
high-end point and shoot digital cameras.

5. Use AVCHD Files on Mac and PC
There are quite few native software programs on both Mac and Windows computers that natively accept
AVCHD files. That means to play, edit, convert and/or burn AVCHD files, you may need to make use of
3rd-party AVCHD software.
Play AVCHD videos on Mac and PC
QuickTime Player in Mountain Lion allows you to play
back video from AVCHD media. Once you’ve transferred
your AVCHD media to your Mac, it will appear as a folder
on your drive. Open the folder and double-click the file
named AVCHD, BDMV, or PRIVATE. If your AVCHD
media has a single video clip, then QuickTime Player will
simply open the clip in a player window. If your AVCHD
media has multiple clips, you’ll see them grouped
together. Simply select the clip you want to play back,
then click Open to open it in a QuickTime player window.
However, it should be noted that previous OS X versions
before Mountain Lion don’t support direct AVCHD video
playback on QuickTime player.
It is possible to play AVCHD video with Windows Media Player on Windows 7 and later Windows OS versions. However,
since based on Dshow (DirectShow) Multimedia Framework, WMP’s support to play AVCHD yet needs additional codec’s
installed (download the codec). After installation, the additional codec ties MTS/M2TS files (AVCHD files) into Windows Media
Player, and thus allows it to be compatible with this file type. But it should be noted that the Windows XP and Vista are not
able to play back AVCHD files in their Windows Media Player.
A suggested solution to play AVCHD files on Mac and Windows computer is to adopt 3rd-party free AVCHD player software.
The free media player software from Leawo – Leawo Blu-ray Player is recommended. It’s totally free, and compatible with
AVCHD files completely, available in both Mac and Windows versions.

6. Edit AVCHD videos on Mac and PC
For new HD users, movie editors that were preset in
computer are recommended as the beginning. If it’s
needed, you could then move to a more advanced video
editor suite. The in-built applications on the Mac and PC
are very good (in our opinion) and may be all you need.
Mac users have 3 options: iMovie (which comes with
every new Mac), Final Cut Pro and Adobe Premiere Pro.
Note that Premiere Pro does support Native AVCHD but
is pitched more at the professional user (who won’t be
using AVCHD). You could start with iMovie, then move
up to Final Cut Pro if and when you need to.
Windows users get more options for AVCHD video editing. While not widely publicized by Microsoft, all
Windows machines come with Microsoft Movie Maker built in. Movie Maker is HD-capable, but does
not support AVCHD. However, you could make use of Video Converter to convert AVCHD into WMV.
Video Converter also comes with HD profiles for Movie Maker which allows you to edit HD AVCHD files
in Movie Maker easily. For Windows users, 3rd-party video editors would be also helpful, and not hard
to search. Video Editor from Leawo acceptes native AVCHD file editing.

7. Convert AVCHD videos on Mac and PC
Since AVCHD format is not natively accepted by Mac and
Windows computer, converting AVCHD files is a good choice to
play back and edit AVCHD files on Mac and PC. Depending on
computer system, you could choose to convert AVCHD to
MOV/M4V/MP4 on Mac and WMV/MP4 on PC for further editing or
other purposes. The Apple editing suites all contain an AVCHD to
AIC converter for the capture of video direct from an AVCHD
camera, so as to let you edit AVCHD files in them. However, these
would loose your original AVCHD files. You need to get a backup
of your AVCHD files beforehand.
No matter you use Mac or PC, there are quite a few wonderful 3rd-party video converting
apps that help you convert AVCHD files to MOV, MP4, WMV, M4V, and other video formats.
Total Media Converter Ultimate is such kind of media converter. With it, you could convert
AVCHD files for Mac or PC for editing, playback (on computer and portable devices as well),
burning, etc.
