Hi Mickey!
You can definitely make VLC the default to open your .mts files. This is how:
Locate a .mts file saved on your computer
Right click/control click on the .mts file
Select get info
Down about 3/4 of the way you see a drop down for “open with”
Select VLC
Then most importantly hit “Change All”
The should make it so that all documents of that same file type will be set to open with VLCI hope that I’ve understood your question correctly and that this will help you!
Best,

Thank you so much for your response that helps a lot! I have just one follow up question. You mentioned that since I have multiple clips, each clip will end up on its own separate track first and then I could move all the of the clips from camera A to one track and camera B to a second. Once I move the video clips, is there still a way to have Adobe automatically sync up the individual video clips to the audio track, or will I have to do it manually?
Thanks!

Thank you both very much! I’ll definitely look into to using something other than a color matte so I can get some texture or gradient.

Yes, when I double click on the AVCHD in order to see the files, I do see thumbnails, but you can’t drag and drop them. You must open the files individually with QuickTime and save them. However, if I go the other route, once I go through the steps of getting to the MTS files I can drag and drop those. Which brings me back to one of my original questions: What’s the difference between the two ways of doing things? Are the MTS files as good as or better than the quick time files.

Thank you for your response! I’ll definitely give using the media browser a shot. However I still face the issue of getting the footage off the SD cards, thats the real issue. I need those files to be saved onto my computer before working in premiere.

The issue isn’t really with adobe, it really more about file types and the fact I need to save the files to my computer before working in adobe. The trouble is simply from getting the files from the SD card to the computer itself.
What you said about AVCHD vs. MTS helps a lot though. If I understand correctly, are the MTS files better quality than the AVCHD files?

Again, very helpful! Thank you so much.

Thank you Jeff! This was tremendously helpful. If you don’t mind I do have one follow up question. When changing/reducing the bit rate should I change both the target bitrate and the maximum bitrate to the same number?
Thanks,
Lauren
