Free online AVCHD→AC3 converter. Fast, private, no sign-up.
Going from AVCHD to AC3 takes a couple of clicks: drop the file in, download the result. Drop in your AVCHD file (a .mts) and download a ready-to-use AC3 file (a .ac3) — no software to install, no account to create, and no watermark on the output.
AVCHD is a video container. Converting it changes how the video and audio streams are packaged so the clip plays where you need it.
AC3 is an audio format. Converting it trades off file size, quality and compatibility to fit where the sound will be played.
Because AVCHD is video and AC3 is audio, this conversion changes what the file fundamentally is — for instance pulling a soundtrack out of a clip, or turning a moving picture into a still. People do it to reuse media in a new context: a podcast from a video, a thumbnail from a frame, a ringtone from a song. Audio is processed with ffmpeg using high-quality encoders (LAME, libopus, libvorbis, FLAC and more), so you get the best possible result for the destination format.
Common reasons: saving a lecture or interview as audio you can play in the background, grabbing the music from a clip, or shrinking a video down to just the part you actually need.
Privacy is the default here. Your AVCHD file is uploaded over an encrypted connection, converted, downloaded the moment it's ready, and then deleted automatically a short time afterwards. We never keep your files, never build a library of your content, and never make you sign up to download the result.
