So, the MTS files you are using were converted to MOV? What flavor - ProRes I am assuming?
How do you get dropped frames on export? Dropped frames is when you play in Real Time, not during export. Do you mean you get dropped frames on playback?
Are you doing all of this off an internal drive in your MBP, or an external drive (firwire 400/800 or eSata)?
What do you need to export FOR? (i.e. what do you need to deliver)
