It is based on the MPEG-2 transport stream container.This container format is commonly used for high definition video on Blu-ray Disc and AVCHD.

M2TS files are used primarily with Sony hardware. Camcorders make use of M2TS in the form of AVCHD, a recording format made specifically for camcorders. Some camcorder models from Canon also use M2TS files.
