    Can I burn this video to a DVD? I have Pinnacle Studio 11 Plus but have issues with the files like they need deinterlaced or something I don't know....It doesn't look right in the edit window...I just got a new Flip UltraHD Pocketcam for Christmas and the only way I can get the video on a DVD is to downconvert it which is kinda pointless in having HD if I got to do that...Sorry I'm so ignorant....Thanks for all comments....

    P.S I have an HTPC with a Blu Ray player and a 37" 1080P HDTV that the video looks great on when playing the single files with VLC player straight from the computer but not a lot of good if I cant edit it and back it up....

  2. Regular DVD players do not play anything but standard definition video in MPEG 1 or MPEG 2 format.

    You can always burn your MP4 files to a DVD (you're limited to the size of the DVDs of course) but regular DVD players won't play them.

    You can make AVCHD discs that the Blu-Ray player might be able to play. I'm not sure if the 720p 30 fps produced by the camcorder is Blu-ray compatible though.

    DVD Ripping??? Nope. Moving you.

    Try make an AVCHD/Blu-ray on a dvd and see if your blu-ray supports it. Try multiAVCHD and burn with imgburn.

  7. It's unclear what you're using for playback. A BD-ROM in the HTPC or a standalone BD player? If a standalone, post the brand and model number. It may be that it simply won't play AVCHD.

    For editing, you could try tsSniper. And for muxing to Blu-Ray or AVCHD, you could try tsMuxer. Both free.

    H.264 is difficult to edit, and there are no free editors that are frame accurate. With a little practice, you can get pretty close with tsSniper. If it's not satisfactory, there's TSPE and SmartCutter ps/ts, which supposedly *are* frame accurate.

    Good luck.
    Pull! Bang! Darn!

    Tried bothe BD and HD DVD from multiAVCHD and Imgburn with no luck...Guess I can use Pinnacle Studio 12 to edit it with and render it into a single file to play with VLC player for now....

  9. What were you trying to play the AVCHD disc with and what file exactly did you try to open? Sounds like you need software that can play Blu-Ray discs and that accepts folders with Blu-Ray structure, i.e. BDMV folder. TMT3, for instance; I have PowerDVD and dislike it. The other Blu-Ray software players aren't worth mentioning. :P None are free.

    You *can* use the free VLC or MPCHC, for instance, and play the m2ts file directly, but you lose navigation. OTOH, you could mux to MKV with something like HDconvertToX and have chapters, subs, and play with a free software player.

    Sorry Im just now getting back to you.Been outa town...I just used multiAVCHD to make a file then used Imgburn to burn it to disc (just kinda felt my way through it,don't know if I did it exactly just right but I use Imgburn to back up DVDs) and the player I showed you came with PowerDVD and I had to download all kinds of updates to get it to work when I first bought it earlier this year and no more up dates available..I checked...Oh and made a HD DVD but it was rendered as a Video_TS folder with DVD and HD DVD files and made a disc in "build mode with that also...
