M2TS or MKV
Posted: Sat Sep 22, 2018 11:10 pm
Hi all,
Sorry if this has come up in the past but I’m trying to ensure I’m future proofing myself.
My Video files are currently going on a Plex server
On some recent rips I have taken the main M2ts file from a decrypted backup as I thought that would guarantee 100% AV quality however I’ve noticed that in some cases the intro of films may have a seperate M2ts file to the rest of the film in which case I’ve outfitted an MKV.
Both play perfectly in Plex but I’m also wondering whether keeping an M2ts file would be an advantage for maintaining a Dolby Vision track as I understand that’s not currently supported in MKV.
I’m aware of the size differences and also have noticed M2ts doesn’t have chapters or audio track names but I’m curious as to what would be recommended to keep as much data as possible. (especially HDR, Atmos etc. )
Thanks.
