Traditions of Mother's Day 2016

As a part of Mother's Day 2016 traditions, children send cards or gifts to their mother or mother figure or make a special effort to visit her. They take their mothers out for a festive lunch or dinner to show their gratitude. Some children even go all the way to cook their mothers large and elaborate dinners, thus giving their mothers a break from preparing food for the family. 

The official flower presented to mothers on mother's day is the red carnation but it is also acceptable for a person to give just about any kind of flower. Another tradition involves displaying white carnation flowers on the grave of dead mothers. Other Common Mother's Day gifts are flowers, chocolate, clothing, jewellery and treats, such as a beauty treatment or trip to a spa. In the days and weeks leading to Mother's Day, many schools help their pupils to prepare a handmade card or small gift for their mothers.

iMovie & M2TS Tutorial: import/convert M2TS to iMovie on Mac

"OK, guys currently i have alot of AVCHD m2ts videos, and i need to import to iMovie so that I can edit them further. iMovie reads the m2ts files but my sound freezes up and gets cut like every second, i wanna know why, and another question is what format do most iMovie read, i want to keep the quality high at least 1280 x 720 or 1920 x 1080 if possible."



As an out-standing movie editing and processing tool, iMovie is widely used among Mac users. With the editing program iMovie, you can import a variety of media files including audios, videos, photos and graphics files to it for professional and further editing. These media files may come from a hard disk of your computer, an external storage device connected to your computer, a memory card inserted in your computer’s card slot or a card reader, or an existing hard disk on your home or other computer network. 

Still, situations will happen all the time. Lots of Mac users complained failing importing or opening m2ts files to iMovie on Mac.

When you decide to import the M2TS video files to the iMovie, you may be told by iMovie that it cannot recognize the M2TS file format. In order to success import footage from an AVCHD camera that stores its files in an AVCHD structure,DO NOT take the actual stream files out of their folders. DO NOT attempt to import the .m2ts files directly. 

Instead, connect the camcorder to your computer and run your iMovie and import the footage that way. The editor will automagically import and transcode the footage from the distribution codec (AVCHD(.m2ts) structure usually storing H.264 video) into an editing codec (Apple Intermediate Codec or ProRES).

Coming across the dilemma of importing M2TS video files from memory card or a card reader, or an existing hard disk on your home or other computer network to iMovie, you should make clear the best compatible format for iMovie first. The basic solution is transcoding M2TS to iMovie best video editing codec - Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC), which is a high-quality and less processor intensive intermediate codec for using with HD workflows in iMovie. Well, Pavtube MTS/M2TS Converter for Mac (Best MTS/M2TS Converter for Mac Review) will help you achieve this m2ts conversion for mac at ease.

XAVC to FCP: How to Get XAVC Support in Final Cut Pro 7?

“Hi, I am working with SONY XAVC files on my FCP 7, but it is quitting unexpectedly very frequently, it’s entirely impossible to work on it. Is the format fully supported by the FCP 7, or do I need to change it to some other format? Or any other solutions to it?”

As you see, Sony's XAVC did not work with FCP 7. On the other hand, the Camera Import plugin is only suitable for Sony PMW-F55 and Sony F5. For Sony's other 4K cameras like FDR-AX100, PXW-FS7, PXW-X70, PXW-X160 or PXW-X500, it doesn’t work. 

Many folks gives feedback that they can see the XAVC clips and play them in the Content Browser, but it doesn't allowed to import them into FCP 7 while getting the Error message “A Clip that cannot be imported to Final Cut Pro is included. There may be no codec for FCP. Please confirm the Update information of FCP 7.”
