m2ts is the file extension, but the format is called AVCHD, and there are plenty of programs out there that handle AVCHD. My favorite is Sony Vegas. There is a pro version that costs about $400, but there is an excellent home version that is virtually indistinguishable from the pro version, and it costs about $80.

The files are mp4 AVC (H.264) so you should be able to edit with almost any software like iMovie or QuickTime directly without converting to an intermediate format. I tested with both and it's just drag and drop.

Johnny,I am new at camcorders and am looking for something easy to download onto my lab top. I am not very computer savvy so I am hesitant to go the HD route. Any thoughts on the TM90 software? Easy to use? compared to Canon 41 and Sony ? Thanks

Its a great software and it will make ur video come with great effects, but if you do not want to do that just download any video converter from download.com and that will just convert all your files that you choose to the format you are pleased with.

From Sony's site: Import - AAC, AA3, AIFF, AVI, BMP, CDA, FLAC, GIF, JPEG, MP3, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, MVC, OGG, OMA, PCA, PNG, QuickTime, SND, SFA, W64, WAV, WDP, WMA, WMV, XAVC S Export - AAC, AC3, AA3, AIFF, AVC, AVI, BMP, FLAC, JPEG, LPEC, MP3, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, MVC, OGG, PCA, PNG, TIFF, QuickTime, W64, WAV, WDP, WMA, WMV, XAVC S. Note that this is not meant to be a format converter - there will be some loss importing in one format and exporting in another. For just converting from one format to another there are a lot of good freeware programs out there. And for some strange reason Sony Movie Studio 13 still refuses to support FLV format. ???

I've been wondering the same thing. When i try to import videos from the camera to windows movie maker it says they are in the wrong format.

Still Pictures JPGE, Movies MTS. (From the manual Most of the Sony users will choose 1080/60p as the format for recording since it can provide twice the information than 1080/60i do so that the MTS/M2TS files recorded as 1080/60p is clearer and more vivid.)

Yes, I haven't played with that much, but have made some videos, saves them in the .wmv format to a folder in the lifecam software. You can choose several different resolutions.

Video Studio Pro XP cannot handle .mov files. You can use AVS Video Converter to convert the file to an .mpg format.

I use to work with Linux, Ubuntu different versions, so with no special software, it appears as any external hard drive. The original format, .mts, is high quality but rather cumbersome and not well played in most players. A software is provided for Windows that allows to make the conversion to .mpg, something that can be done by other means recently, as with online converters.

I just read that the .MOD extension of the JVC can be changed to .MPG for recognition by Windows Media Player and should work with other software since it is a standard format. (You can do this by copying the file onto your PC, right clicking and renaming. With this extension you should be able to burn to a DVD. I am interested in purchasing this camcorder but will NOT do so if I have to purchase extra software. If someone tries this, please let me know if you are successful. JVC appears to receive much better reviews than Sony other than the burning issues. The article I read can be found at http://www.usatoday.com/tech/products/2006-12-06-camcorder-hard-drives_x.htm.

Try the free program HDVsplit for importing HD video from your camcoder then you can convert it to wmv high definition by using windows media encoder. However before you use windows media converter you would need to install high definitions codecs using another free program called ffdshow.

Compelled,What is a .m2Ts file? How do I load it to my PC? Do I open ImageMixer first? I am doing something wrong because after hours of working at it I finally got some video transferred to DVD but it will not play in my DVD player. When I use ImageMixer Player it plays back choppy and with horizontal lines running through the whole thing. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? Thank you.

I'm not familiar with your editing software, but I'm guessing it's probably a file sharing problem, i.e. the editor doesn't recognize the file type? Both these cameras generate the same kind of compressed files, so any problem you had with one you would have with the other. I would recommend a good video file converting program. That way you can convert your .mts files from the camera to .avi or .mov., etc, something your editor will recognize.You can find file converters free on the net, or for a relatively small price, much less than and editing program would cost you.
