There are quite some topics online mentioning the when MTS files (exceeding 2GB) are naively added to a timeline. The problem that then appears is that the audio is typically "shorter" than the video, and it does not appear in the interface. Cinelerra will even shift the audio track under the previous track.
can you post example for the curious? :)
It is mentioned that Adobe Premiere is able to parse an AVCHD structure, including the ability to use meta information such as timecode, which is not available from MTS files directly.
Other workarounds that are mentioned to first join the MTS files. FFmpeg has the option concat demuxer and concat protocol. But it pulls another surprise...

This results in a video file cinelerra (and others) cannot read.
Instead if we would say do it in pcm_sb16le we would be able to show that the MTS file does contain the audio and FFmpeg is able to read it. I have attached a screenshot showing what happens.
I wonder: could we in Cinelerra implement something that would not open a file as single file or EDL, but instead a concat set of files?
hm, look for avformat_open_input in ffmpeg.C according to docs you can set 3rd argument there for specific demuxer: "@param fmt If non-NULL, this parameter forces a specific input format. int avformat_open_input(AVFormatContext **ps, const char *url, const AVInputFormat *fmt, AVDictionary **options); libavformat/avformat.h lines 2240-2274 but I am not sure if cingg can copy concat'd list of files from file picker? For testing you probably can just hardcode input format there and manually enter string of filenames? If this works we probably can think about how to GUI it
Something in the drop down: "Create a single new resource only". That single resource should be opened via the concat protocol, and then be able as single instance. An EDL, but then at protocol level.
I think this would make sense for many recordings that are split due to filesystem limits, but even for image sequences, if they could be directly opened and edited as if they were single files.
