- Description
- Video file encoded with the MPEG-2 codec, which is mainly used for over-the-air, satellite, and cable digital TV signals and DVD video; uses lossy compression for audio and video to significantly reduce the size of the video data; not as efficient as the H.264 format.
- The M2TS file format, short for MPEG-2 Transport Stream, is a video file type used primarily for Blu-ray discs. It is part of the BDAV (Blu-ray Disc Audio-Video) format, which is a standard for consumer-oriented Blu-ray content. M2TS files contain high-definition video and audio streams, supporting 720p, 1080i, and 1080p resolutions. These files are used to store the data for movies and other video content.
