I'm an executive director, last week we got this Canon XA10, and we have used it to shoot reality lifestyle shows for local tv stations. We can manipulate editing software skillfully, now after ingesting Canon XA10 MTS video files into iMovie 11, we find that iMovie could not recognize the footage. Any insights with MTS and iMovie workflow?
iMovie is a proprietary video editing program. This software imports video footage to the Mac. From there, the user can edit the photos and video clips and add music, titles, and effects. If you can't import and edit Panasonic, Sony, Canon, JVC, etc., MTS files in iMovie, you need to read below content to get iMovie MTS solution.
MTS is a file extension for an AVCHD video clip format for high-definition video. Such as Panasonic HDC-Z10000, Sony HXR-NX3, Canon XA20, JVC GY-HD100U etc. The MTS file format supports 1080i and 720p in a relatively small file size. If you get MTS resource, you may want to edit MTS footage in iMovie on Mac.
Does the iMovie supports MTS importing?
Apple claims that iMovie' 09/11 supports most commonly-used video codecs, including MPEG-4, DV, H.264, MPEG-2, AIC and AVCHD. However, all files aren't equal when working in iMovie. If you are an experienced iMovie 9 or iMovie 11 user, you may learn that it is not so easy to import MTS footage into iMovie directly. Sometimes you may get errors from iMovie 9/11 when importing MTS video to iMovie.
We also searched the solution, we find out we can't download and install AVCHD/MTS plugin for iMovie on Mac. Now I suggest you an easier solution and I want to introduce and share it with anyone.
