MTS at a glance

MTS

Convert to MTS when preserving AVCHD camera originals, maintaining ingestion compatibility, or exchanging footage in a camera-native format.

It is appropriate for home-video capture archives and certain editing pipelines.

For downstream delivery and easy playback, MP4 or MOV are usually better targets.

AIFC at a glance

AIFC

Convert to AIFC when maintaining compatibility with legacy Mac, sampler, or media workflows that explicitly expect compressed AIFF-family files.

For new distribution or production pipelines, AIFF, WAV, or M4A are usually more practical.
