How can I convert AVCHD (.mts) files for viewing on iPad
”Hello, all there, I purchased a Panasonic HD camcorder and all of the video format is MTS. There is no free software that comes with the camera that allows me to save the file in a format that I can view on my iPad. Can anyone kindly recommend a converter program that would allow me to save it into a different format that I can pull into iPad? I would really appreciate any help. Thank you so much!”

In this post, we will elaborate the detailed steps required to transcode AVCHD MTS clips to MP4 for iPad using this program.
You can download a demo version (for both, PC and Mac) to have a try. They are not free but it totally worth it.
