Speed is if thr essence

[sergeh]

I have a situation whereby my client requires movie clips to be burned as soon as the event is over. I currently record using AVCHD. I'd like some guidance on how to record in a format that would speed up the process of capturing the clips to my MAC and then being able to provide them in a format [avi, mov etc] that would allow for speed. I know that the format [size] of the original would have something to do with it. You can tell that I am pretty new to this game so any indulgence and help would be greatly appreciated

Clarify what you mean by "movie clips to be burned" ? What do they want exactly?

Do you mean DVD-video authored on DVD5/9 media, playable on a regular DVD player ? Or blu-ray ?

Or did you mean just a data disc (playable on a computer)? you mention avi, mov this would suggest a data disc . If this is the case, you can just give them the .mts files as a data disc this would be very fast, only limited by the burn and transfer speeds (there would be no encoding or conversions)

Sorry about that. It really doesn't matter. I guess if it can be seen on a PC monitor it would satisfy the needs.

Then just give them the original AVCHD clips or even the SD card

SD cards are inexpensive($1.50 per GB) and most modern PC's and Blu-ray players(Sony & Panasonic) have a SD port, you could include VLC player on the SD card to make sure they can play it.
