Not sure if this is the place to ask this question but......
I am looking for a Mac program that will do the following:
1) First, and foremost, it must be affordable!
2) Be able to input a variety of digital video and audio formats, especially ts or m2t video files and with 5.1 Dolby surround intact.
3) As far as editing features I need something fairly basic, cropping and trimming of clips, audio/video fade in and out.
4) Be able to output to DVD, AVCHD, and Blu-Ray WITH 5.1 Dolby Surround sound intact. NOT just stereo!
5) Lastly, it must run adequately on my Mac Mini (Late 2009), 2.53gHz processor with 8 GB ram.
It would seem this is a lot to ask but I have found a Windows program that does do all these things and DOES run fine on my Mac Mini using Windows XP with Parallels 7, Sony Creative Software Movie Studio HD Platinum 11! I would much rather have a native Mac program do all this but everything is too expensive. The Sony program I found for a little as $49.00 and it is tempting but I just have a problem buying a PC program for something a Mac shoudl be able to do easily!
Anyway, before I purchase the Sony program does anyone have any ideas or suggestions.
Thanks, and sorry if this is not the appropriate place to ask this question but I have been so frustrated trying to find something for the Mac that isn't $100s of dollars!
Sincerely,
Jeff Bivans
