M2TS (also MTS) is a BDAV (Blu-ray Disc Audio-Video) MPEG-2 Transport Stream video file used for high-definition video and audio. This format is commonly used to store high-definition video from Blu-ray Discs, as well as other content such as audio streams. M2TS files are encoded using the H.264 Advanced Video Coding (AVC) codec, which provides superior quality and a smaller file size compared to alternatives like MPEG-4 Part 2.
File Format Details
M2TS files can contain up to 4GB of data and are often seen stored in the "BDAV/BDMV" folder found on a Blu-ray Disc. Each file may contain up to 20 different audio and subtitle tracks, making them well suited for videos with multiple language options. M2TS can also be used for storing AVCHD recordings from many camcorders, as well as streaming video.
Other related Video File Extension types include MPEG, MPG, MP4, M4V, AVI, MKV, TS, TRP, M2T, and M2DL.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .M2TS) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .M2TS extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .M2TS file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .M2TS extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .M2TS extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .M2TS file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .M2TS file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .M2TS file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .M2TS file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .M2TS file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
