Been searching and can't find one so there probably isn't, but I'm looking for a plugin/filter to process my AVCHD (.mts) files to .avi in VirtualDub. Any ideas on how to do this as simply as possible? I want to reduce the filesize of my video recorder's .mts videos.
Thanks |

Please remux it to Matroska (mkv) with mkvltoolnix and use Matroska input plugin for VirtualDub. |

Thanks for the reply. I downloaded the Matroska plugin on this forum, placed the extracted file into the VirD's "plugin32" folder and opened my camera's .mts file. I keep getting the error, "No codec found"? |

Maybe you should once read the info via the hyperlink underneath (look at "Method 4 - VirtualDub"):
http://lightworks.wikidot.com/avchd-workflow
In step 1, at my opinion, installing the DirectShow input plugin and the ffdshow-tryouts should be enough.
I did not install the Haali splitter.
And also, please read carefully steps 2 to 5 !!
Good luck. |

A little protocol,
1. Convert .mts to m2ts with TS muxer (GUI). No quality loss, only container rewrap.
2. Convert .m2ts to .mkv with MKVMerge (GUI) from mkvtoolnix 5.0 or newer package (supports TS) . No quality loss.
3. Copy Matroska VD plugin into VD plugin32 folder, if not done before.
4. Open MKV file in VDub. Edit. Trim. Select A/V stream copy. Save to AVI. No matter if VD says no codec found if you make Direct Stream copy. If you want to see the video you need x264vfw & aac acm fcchandler ACM. Search this forum.
You see, no recompresion so no quality loss. Good luck |

(Personally) Thank you for this info.
...And once again thanks to fccHandler for the Matroska input plugin. |
