How to convert FLV to M2TS
To convert FLV to M2TS, upload your FLV file, choose M2TS as the output format and press Convert. The finished M2TS file is ready to save to your phone or computer in seconds, free, with no watermark and no sign-up. Your file is deleted from our server about 30 minutes after the conversion.
This free online converter turns FLV videos into M2TS files in your browser, with no software to install and no watermark. When the video and audio inside your FLV file can be placed in M2TS as they are, the streams are copied without re-encoding, which is faster and keeps the original quality. Otherwise the video is re-encoded as H.264 video with AC-3 audio in Blu-ray-style 192-byte packets.

What to expect from this conversion
