Even though it is announced that Corel Ulead DVD MovieFactory 6 Plus software has added
AVCHD camcorder support and users can import and edit high definition footage from AVCHD camcorder discs, and convert to standard definition formats, but I still met troubles while importing the HD .m2ts files captured by means of a HD Sony Handycam type HDR-CX11E (PAL), I guess it is not as powerful as it claims.
I have to look around for a practical and affordable program to help me out. My only objective is to convert these .m2ts files to .avi files, so that I can edit them with Corel Ulead DVD MovieFactory 6 Plus, and burn them into a SD DVD for playback on the DVD player connected to my TV, as well as computer DVD Player software on computers. Fortunately, I came across Pavtube HD Video Converter, it is easy to use and helpful, I finally successfully converted .m2ts files to .avi format, and the output files are in good quality, without any problems while editing in MovieFactory 6 Plus.

13. Convert MKV to vob or mp4 for playback on PS3 with your needed audio track
I’m trying to convert an MKV files to the format of vob or mp4 for playback on my PS3. The thing is that the mkv file contains two audio tracks, English and French. For some reason, the French track is the default track, but I can understand English only, so I have to look around the Internet for a program that allows me selecting English track as output audio track. After trying out couples of converters, finally I came across Pavtube MKV Converter in a forum, and found some good reviews on it. It really saved me a lot.

3. Click on the pull down menu of “Format” to select mp4 or vob as output format for PS3
I chose “PS3 Video (720P) MPEG-4 (*.mp4)” for instance. To output vob files, you can select “VOB Format” firstly, and then select a format according to your own requirement.
4. Click “Settings” button to do advanced settings
If you want to adjust the video and audio parameters to achieve a special video and audio quality, you can click “Settings” button to adjust video and audio parameters like codec, image size, bit rate, etc to whatever you like. To get a smaller file size, you can select smaller values, but there will be some video loss to some extent; to get a better quality, you can select larger values, while the file size will be enlarged without doubt. That is to say you’d better make a good balance between the output file size and the file quality. If you are not good at it, you can totally skip this step, because the default settings can satisfy you needs basically.
5. Click “Convert” button to start converting mkv to mp4 or vob
Once finished, you can get the resulted files via clicking on “Open” button effortlessly. Now, it’s time to enjoy the movie on your PS3 via your wide screen TV.
