What is a .M2P file?

The .M2P file extension stands for a Maxthon 2 Browser Plugin File. It is a type of video file that uses MPEG-2 for both audio and video compression. This means it can store high-quality video and audio data. The .M2P format is quite similar to the MPEG-1 format but has added benefits like supporting interlaced video, which helps in displaying fast-moving images more smoothly, and it can handle more audio channels for better sound quality. These features make .M2P files popular for streaming videos on the internet.

To open a .M2P file, you can use various programs depending on your device: - **On Windows**: You can use Roxio Creator NXT Pro 9, Microsoft Windows Media Player (which usually comes with the operating system), Media Player Classic, or the VideoLAN VLC media player. Elecard MPEG Player is another option for playing .M2P files. - **On Mac**: Apple QuickTime Player (included with the OS) and Roxio Toast 20 are suitable for opening .M2P files. You can also use the VideoLAN VLC media player on a Mac. - **On iOS devices**: Apps like PentaLoop PlayerXtreme Media Player+ can open .M2P files, allowing you to watch these videos on your iPhone or iPad. - **Other options**: Squared 5 MPEG Streamclip is a versatile program that can open .M2P files on both Windows and Mac computers.

It's important to note that while .M2P files are mainly used for streaming digital video, they are part of a broader family of MPEG-2 files. Typically, standard MPEG-2 video files use the .MPG extension, and standard MPEG-2 audio files use the .MP2 extension. However, .M2P files are specifically designed to offer enhanced video and audio features, making them a preferred choice for high-quality digital video streaming.
