We often come across or hear of MTS/M2TS videos. If we have some MTS/M2TS videos and want to watch them on DVD, what can we do? This article will focus on how to burn MTS/M2TS videos to DVD with Photo DVD Burner.
At first, let’s gain more detailed information on MTS/M2TS videos.
What is MTS/M2TS?
MTS and M2TS are both file extensions for the high definition digital video camera recorder format, AVCHD (Advanced Video Codec High Definition). AVCHD is a file-based format for the digital recording and playback of high-definition video.
The AVCHD format records video using the MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 video codec, and audio in Dolby AC-3. Other than the video and audio codecs, AVCHD also contains menu navigation, slide shows and subtitles. The menu navigation allows access to individual videos from a common intro screen, the slide shows consists of a sequence of AVC still frames accompanied by background audio track, and the subtitles are used to timestamp recordings.
Though both MTS and M2TS are file extensions for the same AVCHD and both support 720p and 1080i HD video formats, there is a slight difference between the two. In the M2TS file, the video file is saved in the high definition Blue-ray BDAV format. Video data on the Blue-ray discs can be saved in one of the three video codecs – MPEG-2 Part 2, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, or SMPTE VC-1; and the audio data in either Dolby digital, DTS, or the uncompressed Linear PCM.The M2TS file extension is written as ‘xxxxx.m2ts’ where the ‘xxxxx’ are a five digit number corresponding to the audio-visual clip.
