“Hi:How can I edit video files of my Canon camcorder with no loss? How can I edit H.D. video files with no loss? I need lossless editing of 1080p (1440 x 1080 pixels) videos. and it forces me to work with these .M2ts files. Also, I'd like to convert them into .MOV, I've downloaded ffmpegx, and managed to convert them into .avi, and .mov files, but no sound! Could someone please help me convert these files,and edit them?” asks anxiously by an anonymous cyber friend online.
Obviously,he or she wanna a suitable converting software and an editing software,as well.
What is high-definition video?
Okay,first,let’s have a general understanding of two prevailing formats: HDV and AVCHD. HDV format was originally developed by JVC and supported by Sony, Canon and Sharp. It is a format designed for recording and playback of high-definition video on a DV cassette tape. While AVCHD,lauched by Panasonic and Sony corporation, is a format for recording and playback of high definition video. Video is compressed in MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format, and audio is recorded in Dolby Digital.
Brief introduction of Pop Mac editing Software:
Nowadays,with the rapid progress in multimedia software industry,more and more multimedia products have been flooding to current market. Some people are at a loss for solving their technical problems,how to edit HD videos with an editing software really suited to them,for instance. Judging from my own experiences,I would like to share with you a newest generation of Mac HD video editing software. Not only it is able to convert HD video formats extracted from HD camcorders or DVs such as JVC, Panasonic, and Cannon,but also can it support standard and high definition videos to be edited.
With respect to its conversion capability,it supports broad video and audio formats as below:
Input formats: HD Video (*.tod, *.m2t, *.m2ts, *.ts, *.tp, *.evo, *.mkv, *.dv),other formats (*.flc, *.fli, *.mxf, *.gxf, *.pss, *.mvi, *.mtv, *.vdr, *.pmf, *.pva, *.k3g, *.vp6, *.nsv, *.nuv, *.dmskm ),etc.
Output formats: iPod (*.mp4, *.mov, *.m4v), iPhone (*.mp4, *.mov, *.),Apple TV (*.mp4),PSP PS3 (*.mp4),Gphone (*.mp4), HD video (*.avi, *.mp4, *.mov, *.mpg),DVD video format (*.vob),and so on.
Powerful editing features of this Mac video editor:
Once you shoot your video in the cool new HDV format, there is still the issue of how to edit it? Ok,this powerful editing software is your best choice.
Besides of its conversion function,it boasts special editing features including trim,crop,capture,reverse,etc.
With this Mac video editing software,you can merge multiple video files to one file,split one file to into several segments,or merger your favorite video segments cut from one file as another one super easily,fast,with marvellous video quality.
Moreover, this program lists common actions,intuitive buttons for editing.Select these using the View menu. The preview window on the right displays clips and can be adjusted in size by dragging the corners. Playback is controlled with the buttons underneath. For instance, you can reset the start time and end time to select the segment you like by using”Trim” button.
When clicking “Crop”,you can adjust the screen size or cut off black edges of the original HD videos.
Adjust video effects
You can drag the slider to set the video brightness, contrast, saturation as well as video volume. Also,this interface enables you to select the specific effect model from Simple gauss blur, Simple laplacian sharpen, Aged film, Flip color, Invert and None. Additionally,you can reverse the picture horizontally or vertically.
Capture the movie as “snapshot”
Capture any image of the video file you like.
Most importantly, there is a problem we should take into account. HD video is big, some four times bigger than standard definition,so it takes more storage and bandwidth just to move clips around. And HDV and AVCHD require more processing power to display the frames. But,luckily,this Mac editor supports 1024*768 or even higher resolution like 1920*1080p display. Click “Settings”, parameters like bit rate, screen size, frame rate will all be reset to meet your requirements.
Also,if necessary,you can add or edit text,image,video watermarks to achieve the effect of “Picture in Picture”.
When finishing editing, you can export to any format using the standard “Convert” button.
The last but not the least,there is rarely software in the market can guarantee perfect audio and video. “How to fix A/V sync problems in MPG files?” “Audio/Video out of sync,why?””No sound?” some people complain recently. However,with the newest generation of the Pop HD video editing software coming into the market,the AV out of sync issue can be handled easily. It adopts advanced AV sync technology,thus completely eliminating the Audio/video problems.
