I have quite a number of clips that I have downloaded from the 'net also.
Mostly short documentaries that I have Stumbled-Upon, or found on YouTube, Wimp.com or Dump.com, but also some non-commercial movies (mostly about wing-suit flying, BASE jumping, and dub-step dancing).
I have added a source to my videos of the folder that contains all of these clips, and while they files aren't scraped like other movies and TV shows they show up in a folder under my "Videos" tab and I can browse them and play them from there.
When adding the source XBMC did ask me what sort of content it was (TV Shows, Movies, Song Video Clips etc) but I just didn't select these options - XBMC would have been hard pressed to find the correct information on most of them anyway).
As for the m2ts format you mention I would recommend adding the source as I mention above and see if it plays.
I have yet to find a format that XBMC can't play, however you can't scrape these 'odd' clips and have them show up with fanart or posters, nor meta-data (that I know of).
