Convert MTS to PEF

There are strong reasons to convert MTS to PEF:

No vendor lock-in: PEF Raw Photo is supported across all major platforms, giving you freedom to use any software you prefer.

Converting MTS to PEF with Xonvert is straightforward:

1. Access the tool — Open this MTS to PEF page on any device — desktop, laptop, tablet, or smartphone.
2. Add your content — Select your MTS file through the file picker or drag it from your file manager.
3. Convert privately — The conversion runs locally in your browser. No files are sent to any server at any point.
4. Get the output — Download your PEF file immediately. For batch conversions, everything exports as a single ZIP.

Frame rate, resolution, and aspect ratio are maintained during conversion. Xonvert avoids unnecessary re-encoding when possible. When converting from MTS Video to PEF Raw Photo, the conversion is lossless, meaning every bit of data is preserved exactly as in the original. MTS Video already discards some data during compression. Converting to PEF Raw Photo adds no further quality degradation since it uses lossless compression. Xonvert selects parameters that maximize quality for the target format.

Extracting an image from MTS Video video produces a single frame snapshot in PEF Raw Photo format. This is ideal for creating thumbnails, capturing specific moments from footage, or generating preview images for video content. Xonvert extracts the first frame at its original resolution.

Important: Converting from lossy MTS to lossless PEF does not restore previously discarded data. The output perfectly preserves your current file quality without adding further degradation, but quality lost during the original MTS encoding cannot be recovered.
