I recently shot some video clips (in avchd file format) with my Sony HDR-XR200V Camcorder. The avchd file is smooth on cam but I'm afraid the format is not as easily accessible in other places as in the cam. So I want to convert avchd to MKV or other more common video format for better enjoyment. How to do?
If you use a stand-alone device like a HTPC, Popcorn Hour or a Western Digital player, you'll probably have better compatibility with the MKV container. Here I would like to recommend you to try Wondershare Video Converter Ultimate or its Mac version (Mountain Lion, Lion included). The two software supply superb fast conversion speed and high quality which enable you to finish your conversion, no matter in Windows or Mac as quickly and easily as possible.
