About M2V (.M2V)
M2V files are video files that store MPEG-2 video data without audio. They are commonly used in DVD authoring and video editing software to handle high-quality video streams separately from audio tracks. The format focuses solely on video information, making it easier to manage video content during production.
Technical Details
Technically, an M2V file contains raw MPEG-2 video elementary streams encoded using a compression method that balances quality and file size. The format supports interlaced and progressive scan video and is compatible with various DVD authoring tools. Its simplicity in storing just video data makes it efficient for video processing tasks before multiplexing into a complete DVD-ready file.
Additional Information & Use Cases
The M2V extension is derived from the MPEG-2 standard, which was widely adopted in the 1990s for digital television and DVD video. Unlike container formats, M2V files do not include audio or subtitles, so they are often paired with separate audio files during playback. This separation allows editors to work with video and audio independently for precise synchronization.
