Someone says: "I film animals in Tasmania at night to hard disk then have to convert interesting parts to format for emailing or posting on YouTube."

Camcorders make it easy to film the interesting things people like such as animals mentioned above on their own. What’s more, many people would like to share their films on YouTube. However, many HD camera/camcorder devices outputs AVCHD (M2TS), XAVC, MXF, MOV, MP4, etc, if your recordings are not MP4 format, you can’t upload the animal films or other HD recordings to YouTube. To upload your animal recordings to YouTube, you’d better convert the animal films to YouTube format.
