This free online converter turns MTS videos into RM files in your browser, with no software to install and no watermark. When the video and audio inside your MTS file can be placed in RM 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 RealVideo 1.0 (up to 480p) with AC-3 audio.
