I’m looking for a Canon AVCHD to ProRes Converter
“Hi, there all! Due to a bug in FCP X I had to convert all of my Canon VIXIA HF G20 footage to ProRes 422, so that I can use them in FCP X smoothly. My problem is that, I don’t have any experience on video conversion, so I’m wondering if anyone could kindly recommend a Canon MTS to ProRes Converter. I want an easy-to-use utility that can re-encode my G20 60p MTS clips to FCP X’s acceptable ProRes format. Many thanks for your help in advance.”
