Exactly John Carold,
As John Rofrano highlighted, your computer is way under-powered for
handling processing power efficiently. Especially ACVHD format which
is processing intensive.
If you are gonna want to continue editing your AVCHD without stress,
you need to upgrade accordingly, or if its out of your budget at the
moment, you can grab a copy of “AVCHD Upshift” over at ‘vasst.com’
to make editing it a bit more tolerable…its going for only $49.00
