Two Methods to Play MTS File on iPhone XS Max, iPad, iPod, Apple TV, etc

Overview

My Sony camcorder recorded some MTS files and I plan to play these MTS files on my iPhone XS Max. I tried many times, but none of them succeeded. Can anyone tell me how to successfully play this MTS file on iPhone XS Max?

I know MTS is not supported by iPhone even the newly released iPhone XS Max, but is there some easier solution to this question? Thanks for your answer.
