Thanks for the vid instructions, worked great to extract the full res recordings. However, the next time I attempted to record after using this process, each new recording gave an error message indicating it couldn't save the recording, although it actually had (was able to see them when I reconnected to a PC via USB). In addition, none of the new recordings were available to view as scenes to playback on the camcorder. Thoughts?
That was great. But what's the next step? What's the easiest way to save the Full quality HD video to a DVD? Do I have to buy a Blue Ray Burne? Thanks.
When you say editing program, are you talking about the imageMixer 3 SE Player that comes with the camera? is it possible to create a file (video) in my computer from a .mts taken from the camera but convert it to a more known extension, like .wmn, .avi, etc? I'm asking this because I'd like to send these videos to family in pen drives or other storage devices and they will be able to view the videos. Or record them on a DVD to be watched on any DVD player.
I have done all the steps you have detailed, but I see no videos in the STREAM file. I do see them and can view them on my Vixia. Any ideas ? Yes I did download them to the IMage mixer and they are sick looking. When I view them on the camcorder screen they are clear as a bell. Any ideas on why I am not seeing them in the STREAM folder ?......THANKS
Really wish I could hear this. I am in the middle of a vid project for university... borrowed this camera and have no way to transfer the video to my windows pc. It simply doesn't recognize the camera it at all.
Hi there, thanks for the video, but I have cord that is a small hdmi (from the camera) to standard HDMI in on my PC and can't seem to get the computer to see the camera. What am I doing wrong or is the only way to transfer the videos to my computer by USB?
I followed you all the way until the end. It appears that you take these large MTS files off the camera and plop them on your desktop. Then you you place them into Vegas. Problem is dont have Vegas having burned through my trial. I now have a trial of Camtasia. Camtasia does not take MTS files. I still need to know how to convert these massive MTS files. Is vegas the onlt editing program that takes MTS? I hat to par the $500. Thanks
This is sort of a minor issue, but I don't see a "Remove Safely" option when I left-click on the Canon folder? Did you have to do something to get that? I haven't installed any software for the camera on my computer, so I was wondering if that might be the problem.
@Golfer4God In this entire video I try not to use image mixer. Make sure that your camcorder(Canon Vixia HF20) is hooked up with the usb cable and hooked up so that its charging. When the camcorder is turned on press the camera/play button just below the screen, should be the farthest on the right, view your manual if needed and it should show a screen asking for usb hook up or printing. choose the usb button and it should connect to your computer.
@arcitejack I made a video on How To Change Multiple Video File Extensions that I want you to see. Try changing the file extension to something you know Camtasia will except and see if it excepts the interpreted .mts file. If all else fails try going to zamzar(dot)com-(dot) means( . )
Dude, next time you do this, make sure WE CAN HERE YOU. I can hear your mouse clicks 5 times better than you voice. Otherwise it is a good tutorial. Thanks r
Make sure you like it so it gets more popular and so its easier to find for people. Apparently not very many people know about this.

What do you do if the Canon "drive" doesn't show up in "My Computer"
The camera is connected because it shows up under devices.
@AtomicFlame53 yeah lol but vegas for me doesnt accept files i have to render em out in after effects first >.>
@AtomicFlame53 zamzar is an online file converter.
