How to convert AVCHD
First of all choose a video you want to convert from your PC, Mac or mobile device. Also you can select it from Google Drive or Dropbox account, or simply drag and drop it to the web page.
When your video is uploaded, select an output format for it among more than 37 video formats that are supported by the program. Then you can add more files to convert them together at once.
Now you can click the gear icon and specify the desired codec, quality, aspect ratio and other settings that you find necessary. Apply them to all files if you want and click the Convert button to start the process.
When the conversion is complete, you can download the video to your computer. It is also possible to save it back to Google Drive or Dropbox.
