- Create a highly compressed 7Z archive of original AVCHD recordings to save disk space
Common Use Cases
- Archiving original MTS camera clips while preserving directory structure
- Making encrypted backups of production footage for secure long-term storage
- Creating multi-volume 7Z archives to comply with storage or media transfer size limits
Tips & Best Practices
- Use AES-256 encryption when archiving sensitive footage for added security
- Consider splitting large archives into volumes for easier file management and transfer
- Remember that MTS files are already compressed, so additional compression gains may be limited
- Be aware that extracting individual video files from solid 7Z archives can take more time
- Use compatible extraction tools to handle 7Z archives on various platforms
Limitations
- MTS files use efficient H.264 compression, so compressing them into 7Z archives offers limited size reduction
- Solid compression can increase extraction time and resource demands for individual files
- 7Z archives may require third-party software to extract on some operating systems
- Playback or editing of MTS files requires extraction and potential rewrapping after archiving
- Creating or extracting large 7Z archives can be CPU- and memory-intensive on low-resource devices
Frequently Asked Questions
- Why convert MTS files to 7Z archives?
- Converting MTS files to 7Z archives helps save disk space, secure footage with encryption, and organize multiple files into a single compressed container for easier storage and transfer.
- Can I play MTS videos directly from a 7Z archive?
- No, you need to extract the MTS files from the 7Z archive first. Playback and editing require the original video files outside the archive.
- Are 7Z archives supported on all devices?
- 7Z is not natively supported on all operating systems. You might need third-party extraction tools like 7-Zip to open and extract files.
