multiple m2ts streams , which editor?

[krohm]

i have various different types of m2ts streams and many other videos with various codecs and containers and im trying to find a video editor that will load all of them and allow me to edit frame to frame. ive tried vegas and pinnacle and totalvideoredo and none of them will load all the various formats i have. what program should i be looking at to load a multitude of formats to be able to edit under the one program. hope someone can assist

long gop and highly compressed delivery formats like mp4 are not meant to be edited. it's not the editing software's fault. what you need to do is convert all the formats to one standard before loading into an editor. some intermediate codec like neoscene might do it for you.

yeah i know,
tpse i just noticed from browsing the forums looks like it could be good for clipping up the m2ts files i have, but i still have the issue of needing to load it into an editing program to put it all together. ill check out neoscene. is that my only option.. to convert everything?

Yes. Neoscene works in Vegas 9/Pro or Premeiere Elements/CS4 + others. It is necessary to work with multiple streams. You may need a separate drive per source to preview or search the timeline without choking.

Great idea. +1 on Neoscene as well
