# Transcoding AVCHD MTS to Motion JPEG on a Mac

(Asked by: username_0 on 2016-10-14)

Bigtime video neophyte and I've not been able to figure this out after a day of trying.  Hopefully this isn't a big deal - pls assume I know nothing.

I have some AVCHD MTS files from my camcorder which I want to convert into a Motion JPEG.  I know that's a strange format, but this is the recommended codec for a programing environment called Max/MSP (because it doesn't do temporal compression), which I'm trying to use.  
(Btw the source video is really jumpy / unstable.  I made lots of quick movements when recording them.  I'm just throwing that out in there in case it has any affect on transcoding.)
So, I've tried using ffmpeg and VLC on my Mac and every time the result is super pixellated and/or the playback is really jittery. 
I'm not sure if I need to change the container format, use a totally different codec, change the bitrate, or any of the other parameters in ffmpeg which frankly overwhelm me.
Maybe there's a simple solution - or maybe there's a resource that will explain to me everything I need to know (concisely, briefly) to figure it out on my own.

Here's the output from ffmpeg, btw.  It produces a file, but VLC on shows the first frame and Quicktime can't play it.

> **Comments:**
> **username_1**: Show the full command that you ran and its full console readout  
> **username_2**: you could try compressor as I believe it has a Motion JPEG option  
> **username_1**: FFmpeg defaults to a bitrate of 200 kbps.  Add a -b:v 10000k in there
