Editing Video TS
What do I have to do to be able to edit a video TS file in FCE?
Intel Mac Pro dual quad 2.8gh, Mac OS X (10.6.4)
Convert it to a production format using MPEG Streamclip.

More specifically, convert it to QuickTime DV-NTSC or QuickTime Apple Intermediate Codec depending on whether the video is 4:3 or 16:9. Use a corresponding Easy Setup in FCE before you import the converted video files/clips.
Note that while MPEG Streamclip is free, you may need to purchase the QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component ($20, downloadable from the Apple Online Store) if you do not already have it on your Mac.
Also note that if it is a commercial or otherwise copyrighted/protected DVD, you are not licensed for any use other than private viewing, unaltered.

OK, I downloaded MPEG Streamclip, went to Apple to get the MPEG 2 Playback component, but it says it needs Quicktime 7. I have Quicktime 10. I tryed to download Quicktime 7 but I could not install it because I already have Quicktime 10 installed. What do I do now?
The DVD is of my grandaughter's dance recital and its is not copyrighted.

Hi
My favourite tool to do this conversion is Roxio Toast™ 10 Pro.
It can back convert from Video_TS to .DV that can be imported into FinalCut or iMovie.

You can install QT7 from your Snow Leopard DVD. It's an optional install that is a special version just for Snow Leopard systems. It has to be installed from the Snow Leopard DVD, not from a downloaded copy. QT7 and QT X can coexist on the same Mac.
I have Toast 10 and never new it could do this. Thanks.
I have installed Quicktime 7 from my Snow Leopard disc. I was upset when I discovered i could no longer edit in Quicktime 10. I am glad to have 7 back.
I have converted my TS file and edited it. Its now on its own BDR disc.
Thanks for all your help. you guy never let me down.
