General VLC media player Troubleshooting • mts and mts.meta video’s



Been trying to play unsuccessfully video files from my PVR (recorded OTA shows, etc) which makes .mts with accompanying .mts.meta files which play fine on it and my Blu-ray player. Can’t get these files to play on anything else in a useful manner – VLC plays it but it is pixelated, choppy, hangs, etc – unusable… most others won’t play them at all (WIN7, Ubuntu, Samsung smart TV, etc.).

SO, tried to convert the .mts file to mp4, m4v, etc. and get distorted, pixelated, choppy, etc. – sometimes the video file is over 5 hours long ~ from a 1 hr video? Others create files that just display black screen and no timer info, or just lock up the player. Used online conversions and one’s downloaded in both win and linux – no good ~ ANY of them!

Hope to find SOMETHING that will convert it – most converter input file list have no .mts option… closest thing is m2ts :-\

…what’s a girl to do!?! :roll:
