Renaming MTS files

1. If you haven't already done so, copy the media files on your device (Canon video camera, iPhone, Zoom H2n, etc.) into your project folder.

2. Disconnect the device and navigate to the media files in your project folder. Note: To navigate to media files from a Canon video camera, you'll need to do the following:

   • Double-click your renamed AVCHD folder (see Copying media files from a Canon video camera if you haven't renamed this folder.)

   • In your renamed AVCHD folder, you'll see two folders (BDMV and Canon.) Double-click the BDMV folder.

   • In the BDMV folder, you'll see several folders. Double-click STREAM. The files in this folder are your media files (00000.MTS, etc.)

3. Rename all of the MTS files in the STREAM folder. Do this by adding a letter to the end of the default filename (for example, 0000.MTS becomes 0000a.MTS.) Use the same letter for all of the MTS files (see image below.) Do not use a letter used in a previous project. Note: Be sure to maintain the .MTS extension at the end of the filename.
