For the high quality performance, AVCHD camcorders have  established their authority in high definition camera market. However, this  kind of camcorder record footages in the format of MTS and M2TS, which get no  native supports from virtually all media players or video editors. In that case,  it’s necessary for AVCHD camera owners to transfer these files into other video  formats, so as to enjoy them on local computer or portable devices, or do further  editing via various video editors. To solve this problem to some extent, my  thread here will concentrate on how to convert MTS and M2TS files shot by AVCHD  camcorder to the format of MP4 in  detail, if you are looking for such a solution by chance, please feel free to  follow it, and sincerely hope this helps.

The application I will use in my post is Pavtube MTS/M2TS Converter. You can  download it via clicking on the link attached on it. As long as you have  installed it, just launch it, and next we will begin with its step-by-step  instruction together in the following passages.

Step 1: Run Pavtube MTS/M2TS Converter

After that, a wine red interface will pop up as below,  please click on “Add” button to load your MTS and M2TS files into this  software.

Step 2: Select MP4 as  output format and specify save path

Once MTS and M2TS files are loaded, then you can click on  the drop-down list of “Format” to select MP4 as output format. Notice that,  there are different kinds of MP4 formats, some are for iPod, some are for  iPhone, some are for PSP/PS3, and some are for others, please choose a proper  one according to your end use of the output MP4 files. Here I choose “H.264 Video  (*.mp4)” for instance.

Meanwhile, if you dislike using the save path set by  default to store the output MP4 files, you can hit the folder icon at the  opposite side of “Output” to specify a destination folder by yourselves. By the  way, imagine you have the need of combine multiple MTS and M2TS files into a  single file, you can tick checkbox “Merge into one file” to realize this goal.

Step 3: Set advanced  settings

Pavtube MTS/M2TS  Converter allows users adjusting video and audio parameters including  codec, bit rate, aspect ratio, frame rate, sample rate, etc. to take charge of  the output file size and image quality. Generally speaking, the larger input  values, the better image quality, but the larger file size as well; on the contrary,  the smaller inserted figures, the more inferior image quality, but the smaller  file size. That is to say, you are able to balance the output file size and  quality by your own.

Step 4: Convert

As soon as all the above three steps are set well, what  you should do next is just hitting “Convert” button to start conversion. When  it finished, click on “Open” button, and then you can get the generated MP4  files there.

Blu-ray is now not new for people anymore, and movie  lovers usually have a collection of Blu-ray movies on hand. To take advantage  of these wonderful movie contents, users always have the needs of putting BD  movies onto their portable devices for playback, like BlackBerry, iPod, iPhone,  PSP or whatever else. Without luck, until now, these portable devices can not  read Blu-ray files at all, so we have to use a third party software to help us  remove the copyright protections and convert BD .m2ts files to the formats that  can be supported by these players. Since lots of posts in the board have  referred to Blu-ray playback issues on iPod, iPhone, and PSP, my thread here  will focus on BlackBerry only, and tell you guys how to enjoy your Blu-rays on  whatever series of BlackBerry you have, including Curve 8500, Tour 9630, Storm2  9550, Pearl 8800, etc.

What you will need:

A BD-ROM or BD-R/RE drive

Pavtube Blu-Ray Ripper

How-to:

Step 1: Launch Pavtube Blu-Ray Ripper and load  BD files

You can load Blu-ray files to this program via “DVD Rom”, “DVD  Folder” or “IFO/ISO”.

Step 2: Select output  format for BlackBerry and set save path

Click the pull down menu of “Format” to select an output  format for your BlackBerry, in the format profile, there are lots of options,  you can choose one according to the specifications of your smartphone.

Meanwhile, click the folder icon at the opposite side of “Output”  to specify the destination folder for storing the output files, if not, the Blu-ray to BlackBerry Converter will export the generated files to the save path set by default automatically. No  matter using your specified destination folder or the default save path, the  output files can be found out via click “Open” button as soon as the conversion  is finished. Furthermore, if you wanna combine multiple .m2ts files to be as a  single file, you can achieve this goal via ticking the checkbox “Merge into one  file”.

Step 3: Adjust audio and  video parameters

Click “Settings” button on the main interface, then you  will be able to adjust audio and video parameters like codec name, aspect  ratio, bit rate, frame rate, sample rate, and audio channels on the popup  window.

Step 4: Click “Convert”  button to start conversion

Step 5: Enjoy

At this point, you’ll have fully functioning Blu-ray playback on your BlackBerry…

iMovie is an useful and powerful tool for Mac users. You can bring video into iMovie from a variety of sources and devices so as to organize, catalog and edit the video, then share your movies with friends and family on the web, Mac or portable devices easily. However, you can not edit all the videos in iMovie. Today you can use a multiple of video devices to shoot video and get even more from web, which are in various formats. Although iMovie works with the emerging generation of video recording devices, there are some formats that are not supported. M4V is one of the few formats that iMovie will not work with. You have to convert M4V files to iMovie compatible format before you can import them to the software. This guide aims to shows how to convert M4V files to be compatible with iMovie. Please find a step-by-step guide below.

In order to convert M4V files, you need a Video Converter for Mac. And I recommend you Pavutbe Video Converter, which not only converts among versatile media formats, but also allows you to set video codec, bit rarte, frame rate, resolution, audio codec, sampling rate, channels, etc. You could download it via this link (for PowerPC please click here).

Step One. Load source files.
Run HD Video Converter for Mac and click on “Add” to import source files, browse to source video folder and click “Choose”. In preview window you could view the video and take snapshots. When the box of Merge into one is checked, all selected videos will be combined together as one output file after conversion.

(Tip: you can click “Edit” button to perform edit functions such as crop, trim, flip, effect, watermark and audio replace. To eliminate interlacing effect, simply check Deinterlacing box under Effect tab.)

Step 2:Set Output format.
Click on “Format” bar when you’d like to specify an output format. As iMovie supports MPEG-2, MPEG-4, AVCHD, DV and QuickTime format, you may select Common Video-> MPEG-2/ MPEG-4.  MOV format is an alternative choice for your preference. If you want to further customize video and audio parameters such as video codec, audio codec, frame rate, bit rate, video size, audio channels etc, please click “Settings” to cofig them. Do not forget to click on “OK” to confirm your settings. In Export to box you could specify destination for the converted file.

Step 3:Start converting M4V to MPEG.
Click on “Convert” button to start Conversion. The converter will generate MPEG file with admirable video quality. After conversion you can edit the converted files in iMovie freely. See how to edit video in iMovie.
