I think we can add some clarification

HDV on a Blu-ray Disc Without Re-encoding

An MTS file is a video file saved in the high-definition (HD) MPEG Transport Stream video format, commonly called AVCHD. It contains HD video compatible with Blu-ray disc format and is based on the MPEG-2 transport stream. MTS files are often used by Sony, Panasonic, Canon and other HD camcorders. Legal input for Video – MPEG1VIDEO, MPEG2VIDEO, H264; Audio – MP1, MP2, AC3, AC3PLUS, DTS, TRUHD.

Note, mp2 and mp1 audio codecs are valid for transport stream itself but not as on-disk format for Blu-Rays.

In this case you still can save original video by using ffmpeg's switches

 -c:v copy -c:a ac3 , while outputting into another temporal ts container.

{waiting for Terje's results on pcm_bluray case}

I think all m2ts files you used for testing were h264/aac (or ac3), not from-camcoder HDVs with mpeg2 video/mp2 audio. 

you can try HDV-in-mov from this folder as ffmpeg test file, I think

http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/mov/FCP/

oh, this is not mp2 audio but pcm audio. And ..not exactly kind of pcm used on blurays!

so this line work, note mpegts_m2ts_mode switch for enabling more bluray like output, without it ffmpeg will mux audio into private stream -  good luck getting it back!

ffmpeg -i  HDV_1080i50.mov -c:v copy -c:a pcm_bluray  -mpegts_m2ts_mode 1 hdv.mts

then tsmuxer recognizes mts file as below:

~/tsMuxer $ tsmuxer hdv.mts

tsMuxeR version 2.6.16-dev. github.com/justdan96/tsMuxer

I wonder if you can cp this file few times and then cat them back together for simulating longer video ) ?

https://github.com/OpenShot/openshot-qt/issues/3428#top

this one contain real very short hdv sample with mp2 sound

http://twenkid.com/os/3.m2t

I can try to dig and test further into this matter later this month - or possibly more realistic next month.
Currently I spend some holiday weeks on Gran Canaria 😎

have good times (even without camcoder!)

Some thoughts in advance:

Would it possibly be better/clear to differ/split between the formats, HDV video on tape (M2T container) and the successor H264/AVC(HD) video on disk?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDV

sure, right now it confusing.

Possibly you still have the probably little longer HDV 1080i sample file, "20081103140154.m2t" we used for the HDV format patch here

yeah, will call my friend 'find' )

thanks!

And if  Phyllis has access to a Blu-ray disc burner and BD hw player, testing could possibly start sooner(?)

For creating a blu-ray disc, if you have HDV MPEG-2 media that is in blu-ray format, you can save the original quality of your work, rather than rendering it to another format. 

{I hope Terje will let us know if bdwrite still works with bluray pcm audio as produced by ffmpeg 5.1+}

I forgot one question:
Will it be possible and how to access and use ffmpeg-5.x included with Cin-GG in a terminal as usual?

The latest openSUSE Leap 15.4 distro I use, has so far no official ffmpeg-5.x package or codec enabled from Packman.
I have add-installed ffmpeg-5.1.2 from OBS (Open Build Service), but don't know if it works.
