Ever wondered what that `.mts` file extension on your camcorder footage means? It's likely the AVCHD (Advanced Video Coding High Definition) video format, a common way HD camcorders record video. Think of it as a container holding your precious memories in a high-quality format.
While MTS files offer excellent video quality, they can sometimes be tricky to work with. They're large, demanding on processing power, and not always supported by older video editing software.
So, what can you do with an MTS file? You can play it directly using compatible media players like VLC or Windows Media Player (with the right codecs). However, for editing, consider converting it to a more universally supported format like MP4. There are many free and paid video converters available online. Understanding MTS files unlocks your access to editing and sharing your high-definition videos, bringing your memories to life!
