It will even update your XML with the new filenames so you don't have to tell Resolve to ignore file extensions/update the XML yourself. From there, Resolve will import the MP4's with no worries.įor those of you scared of batch files, there is a free exe utility I have not tried which comes highly recommended (be sure to click on WinRewrap in the sidebar). Drop in the folder, run, and you should be rewrapped in no time.

To physically create this batch, just open Notepad and paste in the code (only after you understand it), edit the path to your ffmbc exe, and save the file as MTStoMP4.bat.

The final DO section moves the new and old file to the folders we created within the first DO.Īfter the batch runs, you should be left with a folder that only holds the batch file, MP4 folder (with rewrapped files), and MTS folder (with the original files). acodec converts the audiostream to MP4 compliant aac. The keye here is -vcodec copy which copies the video stream exactly (ensuring no degradation or quality loss). The command after the file location tells ffmbc to actually do the encoding.

The middle section needs to have the correct location of where you unzipped the latest ffmbc package (in my case I had it in a folder named ffmbc in the root of my R: drive). The first section ( for) takes the file name before the mts, sets it aside, and tells the DO to run for each mts. The middle section is the actual rewrap, file creation, and naming. The first portion ( DO (md mts md mp4)) creates two new folders named "mts" and "mp4" within the folder the batch file is run from. "R:\ffmbc\ffmbc.exe" -i %%f -vcodec copy -acodec aac -strict experimental -ab 512k %%~nf.mp4 mp4 containers (which Resolve will read) and moves the files (old and new) into the respective sub folder (mts or mp4). Upon running, the program creates two new folders, one called "mts" and one called "mp4." It proceeds to rewrap the. The batch runs from the folder you have the files you want to convert in (the MTS source folder). As an aside, you should never run random batch scripts unless you are absolutely certain as to what they do. To automate the rewrap I used the open source ffmbc (a professional codec oriented customization of ffmpeg) library automated with this batch script (Windows only) I adapted from a forum online (I've since lost the link). The video had a rushed turn around time so I opted to rewrap instead of rerender (which only takes a couple seconds per clip).

He did not transcode (as he had no reason to) which of course introduced compatability issues when the MTS files hit Resolve. The editor cut the music video within Premiere which handles AVCHD and ProRes natively. The BMCC shot log to ProRes and the FS700 shot its native AVCHD. I recently graded a project that shot on both the BlackMagic Cinema Camera 2.5K and the Sony FS700. To get around the issue you can rerender to a more compatible codec (ProRes or DNxHD typically) or you can simply rewrap the files to MP4 which saves time and HDD space. This can complicate the color process in post. Resolve cannot (will not) read AVCHD in its native mts wrapper. If you've ever worked with AVCHD and Resolve, you've almost certainly found that the two do not get along.
