Saving HD videos

[lupi]

Have a full SD card, do I need to copy to keep the entire file structure or can I just save the actual .mts files?

You should just need the *.mts files.

If you need a converter, VoltaicHD is still my go-to:

Super easy for working with MTS files. Some editing programs freak out if you don't have the file structure included, all depends on what apps you use. Then again, some editing programs let you edit MTS natively, so there's that too.

Very relevant to your question, and the anticipated need to reduce file size (yes, I know yours are .mts files, but the same principles apply...)
