AVCHD

[barrister]

I just burned an AVCHD 1920 x 1080p video on DVD5 (Authoring: multiAVCHD; burning: ImgBurn).  Ayos naman ang playback on my Panny BD60 player.

I hope this format gains popularity.  It looks like it has stricter file structures and specs for better compatiblility across different players.  Puwede sa DVD5/DVD9 discs; puwede rin sa media players.

What I don't like about mkv, hindi strict ang specs.  Yung mga authors, kanya-kanyang banat, nagkaka-problema tuloy ang playback.

Unfortunately ganyan talaga sa open source (MKV).

This is why AVI is fading as a container for multimedia because too many hacks done over the years without a clear standard to follow and enforce.

AVCHD solves a lot of problems vis-a-vis using single file m2ts files because m2ts isn't really a good container by itself, by using AVCHD it introduces proper control indexes and headers to tell the playback device how to handle the individual m2ts files (stuff like fps, chapters) during the load process.

does the avchd from panasonic gf1 or canon hf11 be authored by this program?

what workflow do we do with avchd if i want to store the video into a format i can view as HD in the future?
