Guys, i need your advice.

What operating system are you using?

Vista 32bit

Vista does not support it I think. I have used Pinnacle Studio in the past which will deal with this format natively.

Alternatively it's your excuse to upgrade to Windows 7!

Found the best free version with no limitations if anyone is interested!

Convert MTS to AVI with Freeware

thanks for the tips guys!

What camera is it? My Panasonic records in MTS format and it loads into Adobe Premiere Elements fine, but just to view it in Windows 7 I rename the extension AVI and Windows Media Player will play it. Looks like it uses one of the DiVX codecs so make sure you have the latest version installed.

Just download VLC player and you wont have to convert them.

VLC is free and plays most things you can throw at it.




They are actually AVCHD files.
