Hi guys

I am trying to search for AVCHD ( *.mts) files from a formatted drive, i cant seems to find any software supported this extension.

I try winhex and customized the file header search but i am having trouble in determine the header in MTS file.

If someone could help much appreciated. thank you.

Can you not create a new .mts file and then examine it?

I am trying to determine the header but I dont know how to locate the mts file's header. Please see the attached JPGs.

I have 3 mts file but all beginning of the header files are different.

hex view would probably be more helpful to look at

Here you go, thanks

so aside from the first four bytes the rest looks the same in all three

some googling turned up this "MTS has 192-byte-sized packets, of which the first four bytes are a big
endian counter (some kind of time stamp, like pcr)"

looks like first packet starts 47 40 and next packet starts with 47 41 etc

also it appears that the extension is usually .m2ts after the file has been transferred off of the camera

guy here thinks he has figured out the header http://www.highdefforum.com/high-defini ... o-one.html
