M2TS from Blu-ray and AVCHD wraps H.264/H.265 video with AC3/DTS/LPCM audio in MPEG-2 Transport Stream packets. MOV (QuickTime Movie) is Apple's native video container, the standard for professional video editing on macOS. MOV supports H.264, H.265, ProRes, and every Apple codec alongside AAC, ALAC, and PCM audio. Converting M2TS to MOV brings high-definition content into Apple's professional video pipeline.
MOV is the required or preferred container for Final Cut Pro, Motion, Compressor, DaVinci Resolve on Mac, and many broadcast delivery specifications. AVCHD camcorder footage in M2TS can be difficult to work with in timeline editors due to the transport stream's sequential structure — MOV's random-access design provides faster seeking and smoother editing. ProRes encoding in MOV gives you the ideal editing codec for professional post-production.
FFmpeg can either remux (stream copy H.264/AAC) or re-encode (to ProRes + PCM) into the MOV container. Remuxing is fast and lossless but keeps the original codecs. For professional editing, re-encoding to ProRes 422 (147 Mbps at 1080p) or ProRes 422 LT (102 Mbps) provides optimal timeline editing performance in Final Cut Pro. Audio can be transcoded from AC3/DTS to PCM (for editing) or AAC (for delivery). The MOV container supports timecode tracks, chapter markers, and Apple-specific metadata.
Remuxing is lossless — identical to the M2TS source. ProRes encoding actually provides better per-frame quality than the H.264 in the M2TS, as ProRes is designed for editing headroom. ProRes 422 at 147 Mbps for 1080p preserves far more detail than the source H.264 at 20-28 Mbps, though the file sizes are substantially larger.
