How to convert M2TS to TS
- Add your .M2TS file - drop it in the box above or click to browse.
- Convert it to .TS in a few seconds.
- Download your new .TS file.
What to expect
- No quality loss - only the 4-byte BDAV timestamps are removed; H.264, HEVC, Dolby, and DTS streams remain bit-for-bit identical.
- PGS subtitles and multiple audio tracks are preserved in the
.tsoutput unless you explicitly drop them. - If you need broad device compatibility (phones, YouTube, editing apps), convert to
.mp4instead - plain.tsis not universally supported.
Frequently asked questions
Does converting M2TS to TS re-encode the video?
No. The conversion only strips the 4-byte BDAV timestamp from each packet; the video and audio data is not touched.
What is the actual difference between M2TS and TS?
Packet size: M2TS wraps each 188-byte TS packet with a 4-byte BDAV timestamp, making packets 192 bytes. The video and audio content inside is identical.
Will VLC play the converted .ts file?
Yes - VLC handles both
.m2ts and plain .ts natively, so you do not need to convert just to play the file.How much smaller is the .ts file compared to the .m2ts?
Almost identical in size - you save only 4 bytes per 192-byte packet, which is negligible even for large Blu-ray files.
