>>If you want to drag your mts files to an exernal harddisk you have to drag the folder AVCHD and all the subfolders from the camera. Then you import by LOG AND TRANSFER and point to youre AVCHD folder. Then FCP converts the files to Apple Pro Res files for further editing.
okay….. thanks for that. clears up a few things for me. now what to do if you copied over just the “stream” folder from the card and no longer have the AVCHD folder..?!!
thanks for any help.
