Summary: It is well know that iPad, iPhone and other popular mobile devices do not have native support for AVCHD .MTS/.M2TS video files. If you want to play MTS files on iPad & iPhone, you will need to convert AVCHD footage to a format that is compatible with your devices, such as .mp4. In this post, we would like to present the detailed steps required to transcode AVCHD MTS files to MP4 for viewing on iPad & iPhone.
“Hi, guys, I wanted an AVCHD Converter for iPad. I needed it to convert some MTS movies for viewing on mobile devices (iPhone & iPad) while travelling. I bought one previously and it didn’t work. The sound didn’t sync and I could not get any benefit out of my MTS video files taken with a Canon AVCHD video camera. I am disappointed I didn’t find a reliable converter earlier. I wasted money on the previous one. Does anyone know a converter app that is able to convert AVCHD MTS files to iPad/iPhone playable files with good quality without audio and video out of sync issues? I would really appreciate any help. Thank you so much!”
