Yes, it is strange that melt plays some files but not others. It seems to be something to do with the actual files. For example, I've got 2 MTS files created by the same camera on the same night (in fact the clips are only minutes apart in real time). 00011.MTS plays as expected but 00012.MTS doesn't.
Studying the FFMPEG report for these 2 files, I can see that the bad one (00012.MTS) has the following error reported: h264 @ 0xdf1d30]number of reference frames exceeds max (probably corrupt input), discarding one And that the start of input #0 is well beyond the duration of the clip: Duration: 00:32:00.94, start: 2243.224600, Somehow ffplay plays this file. I just tried Totem Movie Player (comes with Ubuntu 10.10) and it plays the video but not the audio (opposite problem to MELT). Seems like I should be able to use FFMPEG to fix these bad files up but I've not been able to figure out how to do this without losing quality. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenShot Developers, which is subscribed to OpenShot Video Editor. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/746951 Title: mts file missing video Status in OpenShot Video Editor: New Bug description: I have a Canon Vixia HF100 camera which produces AVCHD files (*.MTS). Some the files work fine and others have this problem where the audio plays but the video is missing (just a blank white screen). This occurs even before I attempt modifying it in any way. ffplay plays these files without issue melt has the issue I describe above Attached are some debug logs.
