How much do you know about MTS and M2TS?

According to Wikipedia, both MTS and M2TS are Sony high definition video file types, which are raw AVCHD videos recorded by AVCHD camcorders such as Sony HDR-SR1 camcorders. And m2ts files usually record onto 8cm mini DVDS or blue-ray DVDS, SD memory cards and Memory Stick, or record onto hard drive camcorder.

Why Convert MTS/ M2TS to Popular Video Formats?

If someone used to have m2ts or other AVC HD videos, he would be frustrated that there are so little devices which support m2ts video. Normally, you can only play your m2ts video directly from a camcorder on a HDTV with a HDMI, or play on a Blu-ray Disc player.

However, have you imagined playing your mts/m2ts videos on your PC, laptop, iPod, iPhone or any other portable mp4 players? Or even uploading your mts or m2ts video to Youtube, Google videos to share with all of your friends?

In order to find out a workable method to do that, I have searched relate questions on search engine. Finally, I got an answer which certainly can do that – Convert MTS/M2TS files to popular video formats such as avi, mp4, mpg, wmv, flv...etc. So that you can put the converted mts/m2ts video to your iPod, iPhone, Zune, PSP etc. and even upload your m2ts to Youtube. And the key step to do that is to use MTS/M2TS video converter. And I have found out some video converters which well support converting m2ts video to popular video formats, such as Wonderhsare video converter platinum, Daniusoft Video converter and Aimersoft video converter etc.

Generally speaking, it is worth to use this video converter to convert your m2ts video.
