Try the free Splash Lite player:

It was the only player I found that could reliably playback video like these 1080p AVCHD files uploaded by puntagordabob:

I tried VLC and the experimental multi-threaded version of mplayer; both of them had occasional problems with smooth playback. The Splash Lite player had no problems at all.

thanks for the ideas!

these are great ways for viewing the .ts files on a computer but I am trying to play them back on my LED TV via my blu ray player.

and suggestions?

A HTPC would be an excellent choice.  I play back everything I have that way, no need to blow money on disks, or spend time converting, etc.

Bought a PS3 with hopes of doing things that way, but I haven't used it for that.

A quick google search though says use TSMUXER to convert them and IMGBURN to get them on a disk. I love IMGBURN although it's not all that intuitive sometimes.  No experience with TSMUXER though.
