I went skiing and took videos with my HD 1080p camcorder. When I watch them on PC, they are choppy. Why?
I have a JVC HD1080p handheld camcorder that I used to film some skiing. When I loaded the clips onto my PC and tried to play them, they were slow, choppy, and just a mess. I planned on making an overall video using the clips I shot from the camera using Windows Movie Maker. I’m not sure if I can get the 1080p clips on Windows Movie Maker so they are clear and if I can even burn those to a DVD. Is there a 1080p to DVD converter???? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

That is very common when dealing with HD on a computer. HD video is very large in megabytes per second. The biggest resource hog is working with AVCHD. The minimum computer requirements for editing software to make AVCHD work should be increased if all possible. More processing speed and more memory for sure. Then you need to close all other programs and any resident programs, etc, etc. It not uncommon to have crashes or freeze ups while editing AVCHD.
The link below is one converter.
