  Another AVCHD upload problem

  Posted by Ken Weiss on November 28, 2010 at 10:18 pm

  Hello Cow,

  I have a problem that I need help with and I thought there should be a simple fix or solution but maybe I’m over looking something.

  I have a just purchased 3 Sony HXR-NX5U cameras that I’m trying to upload some footage to Vegas Pro 8.1. From what I understood when I upgraded to 8.1, was that it would handle the AVCHD files. It does not. Files are in .MTS format which Vegas seems to unrecognized.
  I have clicked and dragged the files from the camera, I have used the file management software that came with the cameras, I tried dropping it into the time line, and nothing is working. I tried importing AVCHD from the file menu only to have it stop at 25% and say there is not enough memory in the computer.

  So much for the supposed quickness of tapeless format. Atleast with tapes, I know what to expect and I would have had all my footage uploaded by now!

  Does anyone know what I have over looked?

  Cameras – see above.
  Footage – HD 1920×1080 of course.
  Computer, Quad Processor, 2.5Ghz, 4 GB mem, 1GB video mem, Untold number of Terabits of HDD – close to 10 anyways.

  Thanks

  Ken
