Convert MPEG-2 to QuickTime

Summary: QuickTime Player in OS X Lion or later can play back MPEG-2 media without additional software. 

It works with most non-encrypted MPEG-2 file formats containing MPEG layer I or II audio, including .mpg, .mpeg, .m2v, .m2a, and .m2s files. If the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component is already installed when you upgrade to OS X Lion or alter, the component remains available for use by older QuickTime 7-based applications. 

Although QuickTime can play MPEG-2 video, it has limitation as we seen. The MPEG-2 video from DVD is usually encrypted and QuickTime 7.6 or later users need to purchase and install Apple's QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component to play MPEG-2. However sometimes you still can't play MPEG-2 files even if you have installed Apple's QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component. For Apple's QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component can only support MPEG-2 files with the extensions of .mpg, .mpeg, .vob, .vro, .m2v, .m2a, and .m2s for some non-encrypted program streams. Apple's QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component can't play MPEG-2 files encoded as transport streams in digital TVs, MPEG-2 files encoded as program streams on some encrypted DVDs or MPEG-2 files with PCM, DTS, or AC3 audio. 

In order to solve Apple's QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component 'can not issues' and play all MPEG-2 files on QuickTime, we had better convert MPEG-2 to one QuickTime most compatible video format, like MOV, by the assistance of an MPEG-2 to QuickTime Converter -Pavtube iMedia Converter for Mac
