How to Convert and Burn M2V to DVD

With the rapid development of digital devices, we confront with some inevitable problems while enjoying a variety of hi-tech devices. Facing various digital formats, you must have come across the problem that how to convert some of the original digital media to other formats which would be compatible with specific devices. Among the digital formats, m2v is seldom used in our daily life, but DVD has been used as a quite classic way to store digital data since it has been invented and developed from 1995. Whatever, today's article is about to introduce the solution to convert and burn m2v to DVD and this is aimed to helping you solve some difficult problems and thus for better keeping.

Part 1: Know about M2V

Before we start to talk about how to convert and burn m2v to DVD, let me introduce something about m2v to you in order to gain some basic knowledge of it, and then you can get the detailed information easily. Next, let's come back to our topic.

Actually, m2v is a kind of DVD video format of MPEG-2 file format, which only contains video files, but not contains audio files. In addition, m2v is a suffix of MPEG-2 file, output by the famous video editing software Adobe Premiere. For it is saved as output by Premiere, we generally use it to open and edit m2v files. To be easier, another way is to use video format converter to convert it to a normal video format and then, you can play it on your own player.

Part 2: Difference between MPG and M2V

As we all know, there are many digital formats, such as RMVB, M2V, MP4, AVI, FLV, and MPG, etc. We are going to analyze the difference between MPG and m2v, then you will acquire more information about the formats.

MPG is also called MPEG, Moving Pictures Experts Group, established by ISO and IEC in 1988, specialized in the standardization of moving images (MPEG video) and audio coding (MPEG audio). MPEG is an international standard for motion image compression algorithms and now is supported by almost all computer platforms. In fact, it includes many versions, normally include MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, MPEG-7 and MPEG-21. MPED-1 is universally used in the production of VCD, compressed in MPEG-1 format. MPEG-2 applies in the production of DVD (Digital Video/Versatile Disk), HDTV (High Definition Television Broadcasting) and some highly demanding video editing and processing. And MPEG-4 is a new compression algorithm. The ASF format using this algorithm can compress a 120-min movie to a stream of about 300 M for viewing on the Internet. MPG may be based on any compression standard in MPEG-1 (VCD) or MPEG-2 (DVD). MPEG is very popular among various digital situations. Then you may wonder does MPEG really outweighs other formats? Whatever, from How to Convert MPEG to Blu-ray, more basic information about MPEG and some other advantages or references you will gain. On the whole, MPG is superior to other compression or decompression schemes in three respects.

First of all, since it was developed as an international standard at the beginning, MPEG has good compatibility. Next, MPEG offers better compression ratios than other algorithms, which is up to 200:1. More importantly, MPEG minimizes data loss while providing a high compression ratio. It is quite outstanding due to its availability and smaller capacity. Besides, since there are multiple versions of mpg, when playing video files in MPG format with a certain software, sometimes you can open it, sometimes can't.

As introduced before, m2v is a suffix of MPEG-2 file, an output format developed by the famous video editing software Adobe Premiere. There are two ways to output MPEG-2 by Premiere: first, use Adobe MPEG Encode to output as m2v; second, In the Premiere PRO (please note that PRO is the professional version) Export Movies can be quickly completed from compression to engraving.

In a word, we can't say which one is better than the other. It depends on different personal preferences and different circumstances. In my opinion, MPG is more convenient and compatible in the most players than m2v format.
