Convert MTS to QuickTime for iMovie and QuickTime Player on Mac

Hi! I'm new in Mac. I have a MacBook Pro and a Panasonic digital camera that films great HD videos in MTS format. I know that Quicktime Player and iMovie don't support MTS videos, but is there any program to convert the videos to a supported format that can be able to watch and edit MTS videos with them?? Thanks in advance!! PS: I downloaded VLC Player and it works fine, but I would like to use Mac aplications...



Have you ever get some MTS/M2TS videos with Canon, Sony or Panasonic camcorder like Sony NEX-F3, Panasonic HC-X900, etc? If so, ever tried to watch and edit MTS files on your Mac as the above user want- play MTS on QuickTime Player and edit MTS in iMovie on Mac.

However, as we know, QuickTime Player and iMovie don’t support MTS videos. Thus, in order to make MTS editable and playable on Mac OS X, you have to convert MTS to QuickTime on Mac compatible both for iMovie and QuickTime Player.
