I have to agree that MTS is the best place for this conversation.
And it isn't going to be a simple process.

It's going to be much more complex than exporting video out of TS4 and importing it into TS3 as the games are programmed entirely differently and video/audio encoding come into the picture. Expect a 50-step process or something like that which would be impossible for us mere mortals who lack the encoding skills required to follow, but others at MTS should be able to point you in at least the right direction.
