What is MKV?Ĭontrary to popular belief, MKV files are not an audio or video compression format. MTS container format is commonly used for Blu-ray disc, AVCHD and HD camcorder while M2TS is commonly used for Blu-ray disc and AVCHD.
It’s a special format for transmitting MPEG (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, or MPEG-4) video muxed with other streams. M2TS/MTS, MPEG-2 Transport Stream (TS File), is a BDAV (Blu-ray Disc Audio-Video) container format. What am I missing here regarding more people making mkv files rather than M2TS files? I’m someone who wants the original blu-ray quality of the video and audio and do not want to recompress or re-encode anything."īefore made the decision to rip Blu-ray to M2TS or MKV, you should know the definition of M2TS and MKV. All software video players and hardware media players play M2TS files these days. I watched a video online where a user of MakeMKV was showing people how to back up a blu-ray disc movie to an mkv file, which took forever and appeared the video was being recompressed. Why are they not backing up to M2TS files? M2TS files contain the “original” video, “original” audio tracks, and all subtitles. "I’ve noticed a lot of people using MakeMKV are backing up their files to MKV files. However, I have recently become aware that I also can copy the primary M2TS file on a Blu-ray disk then this format appears to offer some advantages over MKV, despite the larger file size (44.2GB vs 38.4GB in the example I have checked). " That enabled me to preserve the original video quality but save a bit of disk space by eliminating unnecessary subtitle and audio tracks. I chose to rip to MKV files without any re-encoding. "Last year, I made the decision to start ripping my Blu-ray (and DVD) collection to a computer-based format. They worry that if you they backup Blu-ray to MKV, they would miss something in original Blu-ray discs but if copy Blu-ray to M2TS, the output file is too large. When ripping Blu-ray, many people are hesitating whether they should rip Blu-ray to M2TS or convert Blu-ray to MKV. 01:31 am / Posted by Diana Joan | Categories: Blu-ray
