How to download and edit videos on Chromebook from Sony a5100 camera?

I am having trouble downloading my videos I took on my Sony a5100 camera. As soon as I put in the SD card, the pics come up, but the videos shown as files and do not play. I tried an video converter app and the videos skip and fidget. The video files are in AVCHD format. I just want to know how can I successfully and easily download my videos and edit them on my chromebook! Please help!

Chromebooks aren't powerful enough to edit video. You may be able to find a video trimmer. If VLC is available, it may be able to play back the videos if you have the correct screen resolution and your hardware supports HD playback. Why aren't you using a camcorder for video?
