How to use M2TS converter to convert M2TS files to AVI, MP4, MPEG, etc!

A .M2TS file is a Sony high definition video file type. M2TS files are raw AVCHD videos recorded using Sony's camcorders, such as the HDR-SR1 and HDR-SR5 models. Panasonic, Canon and other brands of AVCHD camcorders also record in M2TS format.

That's to say, it's not convenient to play and enjoy your M2TS video.

With AVC HD camcorders, you typically need to connect the HD video camera to your PC using a USB cable. Once connected and powered on, the camcorder should appear on the desktop as a new disk.

Each of the AVCHD camcorders ships with software designed to playback the files on your computer. Sony's HDR-SR1 and the newer HDR-SR5 both record video in the AVCHD format and ship with the Picture Motion Browser, which plays back AVCHD files on most computers. If you purchased one of the Panasonic AVCHD camcorders, the included HD Writer should allow you to playback video recorded with your camcorder.
