You will need to use the AVCHD transcoder. The AVCHD transcoder converts AVCHD data* to P2 DVCPRO HD format which are supported by major NLE systems. It can be downloaded from Panasonic’s support site at no cost.

There are many popular editing programs like FCP, iMovie, Adobe PP, Avid MC on Mac; Windows Movie Maker, Adobe PP, Avid MC, Pinnacle Studio, Sony Vegas Pro, etc on Windows,

Although, AVCHD is widely used now, in most cases, AVCHD is still not an edit-friendly format for NLE. What you can do is to transcode AVCHD to a certain editing tool natively supported format.

Brorsoft MTS/MTS Converter for Mac is just a video app that provides the optimal presets i.e. AIC .mov for iMovie/FCE, Apple ProRes for Final Cut Pro, DNxHD for Avid MC, MPEG-2 for Adobe Premiere Pro/Sony Vegas Pro, WMV for Windows Movie Maker…

So, it can hlep you fast convert AVCHD .mts/m2ts video any NLE system favorable format/codec keeping the maximun quality. Of coures, there’s a Windows version MTS/M2TS Converter.
