Does anyone know how mythvideo gets's on playing back files generated by consumer camcorders. As I understand it some models have their own slight variation on the AVCHD standards<br>

There seem to be quite a few models with not a lot to choose between them so I was wondering if anyone had found any that either worked well, or did not work well with mythvideo and that might help me narrow down my choices.<br>

I've had the files from a Sony HDRXR150E HD HandyCam play both with VLC (High CPU requirement) and best (in lo CPU terms) under mythbuntu / mythtv 0.23 fixes / mythavtest / vdpau. I've not been able to clarify whether they are 1080i or p files, I did confirm the 1080 bit. Sound was fine too.<br>
<br>
I've not figured out how to directly import those files into the mythtv system, no doubt there is some simple way.<br>
