Did you try importing the clip via the Vegas Pro Device Eplorer?

You may try my old AVCmerge.

This happened to me too. I solved this by importing the files with the application that came along with my camcorder.

Just to add ffmpeg here too, it can join them nicely too.

ffmpeg -i concat:"001.MTS|002.MTS|003.MTS"  -vcodec dnxhd -b:v 36M -c:a pcm_s16le merged.MOV    

This merges 3 mts files, and convert them to dnxhd in one step, so that I can use it Davinci.

Of course if you don't need to convert it, just specify -vcodec copy -acodec copy and maybe put into mp4 or the same container. So:

ffmpeg -i concat:"001.MTS|002.MTS|003.MTS"  -vcodec copy -acodec copy merged.mp4

or

ffmpeg -i concat:"001.MTS|002.MTS|003.MTS"  -vcodec copy -acodec copy merged.MTS

I think these should work too.

VideoRedo has the advantage of closing GOPs, reassigning I-frames, correcting errored frames, resync and reindex when necessary. A very useful tool for editing.

Thanks for all the input. VideoRedo is what worked for me.

I know it's an old thread, but I just combine mts files with dos comand

In Windows at a CMD prompt:
copy /b "file1"+"file2"+"file3" "CombinedFile"

I copied the files from SD to my system and run CMD from their folder.

example: copy/b 00000.mts+00001.mts Dory1.mts

5sec for 3Gb file.
