Re: [Avid-L2] AVCHD transfer conundrum

It's just yet another decoder implementation, but have you tried FFMpeg?
Or Media Composer AMA for that matter?

How are you offloading the files? USB to the camera or a card reader? Try
both methods and compare MD5 sum of the files - see if anything weird is
happening.

Try playback of AVCHD clips in another camera or with Blu-Ray player (that
has SD slot)?
