  AVCHD and HD mpeg TS editing in Vegas

  Posted by Alan Lacey on July 12, 2008 at 5:38 pm

  I’m being asked about editing files from modern consumer HD camcorders. These this record either AVCHD or transport stream HD mpeg to their hard disks.

  Will I be able to edit this in Vegas 7 or 8.

  Indeed, sony vegas pro 8 can edit AVCHD and transport stream HD,
  BUT, avcHD format is not too edit friendly for any NLE application presently……Hence there is a powerful, handy tool at vasst.com called “UpShift”
  that makes editing this format a little easier.

  Thanks Steve.

  Am I right in believing that there is an intra-frame flavour of AVCHD as well as the inter-frame one?

  I’d assume that all codecs that use temperal compression will be less edit friendly.
