AVC HD to P2 converter
Posted by Hugh Haynie on December 14, 2010 at 8:34 pmIs there a free yet effective AVC HD to P2 file converter out there? There used to be one on the Main Concepts site, but I just checked and it’s been taken down.
Help!

December 14, 2010 at 10:02 pmNever heard of such a thing. Converter for what? To record AVCHD onto a P2 card? Why record onto more expensive media than SD or CF cards? P2 is a recording media….it records DVCPRO HD or AVCIntra. So…what are you trying to do?

December 14, 2010 at 10:07 pmI have video on a AVC HD card: two MTS clips at 50mi and 57min.
I want to bring them into Avid MC 3.01 .
my Avid likes P2 files, so i’d like to convert the files to P2 on an external drive.

Your Avid like MXF files…that the P2 cards record to. The only way I know to do this is to play out from one camera to another, or play out to a P2 Gear or P2 Mobile. No file conversion I have heard of.

December 14, 2010 at 10:21 pmI don’t have a P2 camera or card.
video was recorded on a panasonic camera that records to AVC HD.
more specifically the file types are .MTS .
unless there is a better idea, i want to get the files to a P2 type format that i know the avid will like.

December 14, 2010 at 10:49 pmYeah, Hugh, that main concept thing seems to have recently stopped being offered.
You can use ClipWrap to make an Avid DNxHD mov if you want.
I should add it’s not free, but cheap.

December 16, 2010 at 2:51 pmYou can import AVCHD with Log & Transfer in FCP as ProRes, then place into an AVC-Intra timeline and export to P2. You would need two products from us, AVC-Intra QT and MXF Export Suite that includes the P2 exporter.
