What to expect
- MTS is an AVCHD transport-stream format; it cannot raise the low resolution of the 3G2 source.
- The video is re-encoded to fit the target, a lossy step, and transport-stream overhead can increase file size.
- Only the media streams transfer; 3GPP2 container metadata does not.
Frequently asked questions
Does converting to MTS make it HD?
No. MTS is the AVCHD camcorder format and normally carries HD H.264 video, but it cannot upscale the low-resolution mobile footage from a 3G2. The picture stays at the source's original size and detail.
Why convert 3G2 to MTS?
MTS is the transport-stream format AVCHD camcorders from Sony, Panasonic, Canon, and JVC produce, so the conversion helps when a tool in that camcorder ecosystem expects an MTS file.
What opens an MTS file?
The free VLC media player opens MTS on Windows, macOS, and Linux with no extra codecs. Many video editors that target AVCHD also accept it.
Will the file grow?
It can. The transport-stream packaging adds overhead versus the compact mobile container, so the same footage often occupies more space as MTS.
