- Convert it to .M2TS in a few seconds.
- Download your new .M2TS file.
What to expect
- Full transcode: OGV's Theora/VP8 video is re-encoded to an M2TS-compatible codec, a lossy step whose quality depends on the chosen bitrate.
- M2TS is a transport-stream format built for Blu-ray/AVCHD, so it favors disc-oriented codecs over the royalty-free Ogg codecs.
- Chapter and container metadata from the OGV are not preserved in the transport stream.
Frequently asked questions
Will quality drop converting OGV to M2TS?
The video and audio are re-encoded into the codecs M2TS uses (such as H.264 with Dolby/DTS or PCM), which is a lossy step, so quality depends on the target settings. M2TS itself can carry high-quality video, so loss can be modest.
Why convert OGV to M2TS?
M2TS is the format used on Blu-ray discs and AVCHD camcorders, so people convert to it for compatibility with Blu-ray authoring workflows and players that expect that transport-stream format.
What opens an M2TS file?
VLC media player plays M2TS for free on Windows, macOS, and Linux without needing extra codec packs, which is the simplest way to check the converted file.
Is the M2TS larger than the OGV?
Often yes. M2TS is an MPEG-2 transport stream aimed at disc-quality video and generally uses higher bitrates than a compact Ogg Theora file, so the result can be larger even though it plays the same footage.
