Convert MOV to M2V

.mov

Apple QuickTime Player

Apple develops the MOV video format for QuickTime player and video clips. It is equally compatible with Microsoft and macOS systems. MOV files can be used to store two or more than two tracks, and it can be an audio, video, text, image, or any other file or effect. This makes it a highly flexible file format, and it is trendy for music and video editing.

MOV files contain various tracks containing the factual data or the data for editing in the form of hierarchy or atoms. Atoms might be single or in association with other atoms, and they can perform either of these two actions simultaneously. MPV and MP4 files use the same MPEG-4 file container, and they consider QuickTime as a standard with their support. The earlier versions of the QuickTime player only allowed the users to view the MOV files, while the later versions also let the users edit the data and export it to various systems.

.m2v

M2V is a format that supports video-only storage; accompanying audios or subtitles are stored in separate data files. Though the M2V is not as efficient as newer video storage and transmission standards like AVC and HEVC, it enjoys usage to date due to its backward compatibility with recent video creation technology. M2V was used in its hay days as a format for storing motion pictures; old movie reels can be used on digital TV and more advanced video transmissions technologies like DVD and DVB-S2.

Files with the .m2v extension are referred to as MPEG-2 video stream files. The MPEG-2 is the format of choice for transmitting digital Television signals via cable or satellite TV broadcast. M2V files are hardly seen alone since their source data contains video alone.; hence, accompanying audio, metadata, and subtitle files are included in whatever media where the .m2v file is stored. M2V files are usually seen on DVD-creation tools and programs, combined with other separate items like WAV or AIF files, menus, and video chapter points, to build an intelligible DVD video. Rather than using conventional audio files like .ogg or .wav, some DVD-creation programs utilize the MPEG-1 audio file format.
