Hi Are you on the latest update for MEP 2015? It should be the one John CB stickied at the top of the forum. It is common for Magix to tweak export preset settings in patches and the latest 14.0.0.172 is no exception. If you are already on it

RE: How does Photostory decide whether to create MTS or M2TS files?

Hi There is no difference between mts and m2ts files - they are the same thing. As far as Photostory is concerned, if you are exporting to AVCHD, the program is set to export as m2ts and you cannot change this - if you do the export refuses to
