  1. Hi
    I am wondering if there is a way to play native avchd files (Mts files shot with my Sony videocam) on my Ipad2 without doing any conversion. If someone could help me it would be great. Thank you.

    No. They must be converted. Try Handbrake.

    PS: use iPad preset.
    1024x768 (iPad screen res)

    Note that the iPad screen is 4:3 aspect ratio. 16:9 will show as letterbox.

    Video specs per Apple site http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/
    Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    Missing from that spec is max H.264 video bit rate but AVCHD @17-28 Mbps is probably too high.

    edDV is probably right, but remux to MP4 and see just for fun. iPad resolution limit is 720p30. AviDemux can do it.

    "Merovingio"? So you have a royal bloodline?
