AVCHD standard support

capable of decoding and playing this format in real time.

computer features enough computing power. If this test is negative, the
AVCHD material will be converted into an MPEG-2 file to make sure it may
be processed on older systems as well.

MAGIX Video Pro X3 now also supports the AVCHD Lite standard, which is
used by digital cameras for recording video (among other things).
