Process files in seconds with our optimized servers
Frame-accurate cuts with intuitive timeline controls
Maintain original quality with smart re-encoding
M2TS (MPEG-2 Transport Stream) is the container format used by:
M2TS files typically contain H.264 or MPEG-2 video with AC3 or DTS audio.
Cut specific scenes from Blu-ray rips without re-encoding the entire disc.
AVCHD camcorders create long continuous recordings. Cut out the relevant portions before editing or sharing.
Cut commercial breaks from digital TV recordings saved in M2TS format.
Competitors like aconvert.com support M2TS cutting alongside MP4, MOV, WebM, WMV, and other formats with direct stream copying. ezgif.com offers a "Use current position" button for precise timestamp selection from the video player. online-video-cutter.com provides a visual timeline editor. clideo.com handles files up to 500MB for free. Most competitors don't specifically target M2TS — XConvert is one of the few with a dedicated M2TS cutting page.
XConvert uses stream copying when possible — extracting the selected segment without decoding and re-encoding. This preserves original quality and processes much faster than re-encoding. Cut points snap to the nearest keyframe (typically every 0.5-2 seconds).
No. Stream copying preserves the original video data bit-for-bit. There's zero quality loss.
Yes. Completely free with no watermarks, no sign-up required, and no file count limits.
M2TS files from Blu-ray and AVCHD use high bitrates (20-40 Mbps) for maximum quality. A 1-hour recording can be 10-20GB.
Upload the same file multiple times with different start/end times to extract multiple segments.
Yes. Works in any modern browser on all devices — no app installation required.
