AVCHD Videos

I've got a Panasonic DMC-ZX3 since a few month and I found a few informations on how to view, convert, etc. the videos it takes. They are in HD and outputed in a strange .MTS files (and some others, I'll write more on that some time later). Regular players can't read those files, and I eventually found some converting tools under linux (I'm using ubuntu)


AVCHD = sudo apt-get install libavcodec-extra-52 winff openshot

Tethering (using computer as a screen for the camera while shooting)

Meanwhile, I found this website explaining how to use your computer screen for your camera. I didn't test already, but I like the idea.
