How's it going?!
I am Salvis Are. I am 25 now and I am born in Valmiera, Latvia. Currently I live in Uk, Bishop's Stortford - 30 mins from London.
I am interested in photo and video since high school. Afer high school I've been studying advertising in Riga/Latvia. In Uni I made a couple of shorts and couple of adverts.
Now I bought Canon XH A1s camcorder and Manfrotto 745XB tripod with 501HDV head.
What I am gonna do in next months is to explore the camera properly, make a couple of nice shorts and videos and form my own company.
Just interested if you have any suggestions of capturing the videos from HXA1s. Right now I am using HDVsplit, but then the m2t file is unrecognisable..
Any other way???
Thank's and I'll see you around!
Salvis Are.

Hello Salvis,
and welcome aboard.

Re: your capturing question, I'd strongly suggest
you explore the various Cineform options (and the related HDLink program):
Cineform files will make your editing faster & less taxing on
your computer, and will help you preserve quality during post-production.
(see: Cineform (http://cineform.com/) and the Cineform forum here on DVinfo)

Best
