Description kxra 2012-04-05 20:30:36 UTC 
AVCHD is the standard for high definition video on digital camcorders, and a tool is needed to extract these files while retaining the metadata. Currently, users must copy individual .mts/.m2ts files and combine them together (they are split if larger than 2GB), which does not keep the metadata. Currently, the only tools available are special proprietary tools only available for Mac or Windows.

I can see the appeal, at the same time I'm wondering if this is really Pitivi's job. Danny, don't you think this would be better served by a specialized, minimalistic conversion tool with a GUI separate from Pitivi?
