.m2t to Blu-ray?

[Breaker1620]

Hello Everybody!

I have an old .m2t (not .m2ts) file that I would like to burn to Blu-ray. Is there a way to do this directly or does it have to be converted to some other format first? If I do have to convert, is there any way to ensure that there will be no loss in quality? Everything I have tried so far has resulted in tears. Thanks for any assistance that you can provide.

In the best case - if you are lucky - you can just remux it with tsmuxer which will output a blu-ray compliant file structure, ready for burning to a disc.
But keep in mind that blu-ray compliance means that other paramaters must be met as well, so reencoding is normally required. Try importing it in BD-Rebuilder.

Isn't .m2t a format used by editing software such as TMPGEnc? What happens if you just rename the file to .m2ts? Will your authoring software accept it then?

I suspect this too.

Blu-ray has m2ts files, while AVCHD has M2T files. But as far as I understand, they are the same.

But the m2ts file itself isn't enough to play it on a blu-ray player. You'll also need the ClipInfo and Playlist file.

If you don't have these, my suggestion is also to use tsMuxer on the m2t file. It'll produce the blu-ray folder structure you need.

Thank you all for your responses! I'm now off to learn about tsMuxer as this is all very new to me. Thanks again.
