Part 1: Why Windows Media Player Plays MTS Files with No Sound<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Before we get started, let me answer a general answer to some users who don\u2019t really understand .mts format. An MTS file is a video saved in the Advanced Video Coding High Definition (AVCHD) format. It is the standard video format used by many Sony and Panasonic HD camcorders. It is also used for storing high definition video on Blu-ray discs. Yes, most of your home videos captured in camcorders are contained in this type of format. <\/p>\n
Windows Media Player is one of the most common media players in the world. It plays almost everything and it is handy to use even for beginners. However, when it comes to playing .mts files on Windows Media Player 11, you can hardly make it happen. Why? <\/p>\n
Part of the reason for the failure of .mts playback on Windows Media Player is because this format is not supported natively but fortunately, Windows adds the support of .mts file format since Windows Media Player 12. It is said that it still shows no sound on some occasion during playback. This is because Windows Media Player lacks codec support to decode .mts in order to play the file smoothly and completely. You now have two options to remedy the no sound on Windows Media Player issue, first of which is to convert .mts to Windows Media Player compatible format and second is to install the codec again. Let me walk you through these two solutions one by one shot that you can fix the Windows Media Playerno sound issue successfully. <\/p>\n

<\/a>\n<\/div>\nPart 2: Convert MTS Files to Windows Media Player Supporting Format<\/strong><\/h2>\n
I would rather spend some efforts to convert .mts files than simply wait to see the no sound issue disappears itself. It won\u2019t, will it? Speaking of converting .mts file to another format that is compatible with Windows Media Player, we need a third-party tool to convert files. Leawo Video Converter is one of the best choices here. It is a professional video converter that has supported more than 180 formats and preserved 1:1 file quality after conversion. With the utilization of up-to-date media processing technology, this tool is able to process files at 6x speed compared to other rivals in the same category. Besides, many custom features are provided free to enable users to make or edit the videos according to their preference. Hence, it is not just a video converter but also a video editor. It is a bonus to users that it also serves as a media player so that users won\u2019t bother to transfer files to other media players for playback. Now Leawo Video Converter <\/a>is just the perfect one-stop solution to them. Users still have the option to convert .mts to Windows Media Player compatible format and transfer the converted files to Windows Media Player for enjoyment if they want to do that. <\/p>\n

Click the button below to download and install the converter to your hard drive. Launch the tool after installation completes. <\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\nPart 3: Install Codec to Decode MTS Files on Windows Media Player<\/strong><\/h2>\n
If you want to fix the Windows Media Player no sound issue, you may also re-install the codec to make it work. Too many times, when your Windows Media Player prompts that it fails to stream files, it is because it lacks certain type of codec, same with .mts file experiencing no sound issue here. In this case, try to re-install the latest codec to make it work. Follow the steps here. <\/p>\n
Step 1:<\/strong> Click Start<\/strong> and choose Control Panel<\/strong>. <\/p>\n
Step 2:<\/strong> Click on Programs and Features<\/strong> where you will find all the installed programs on the computer. <\/p>\n

Now try re-installing the latest codec\u2019s and check if the issue is fixed. <\/p>\n
