About TS
TS
TS (MPEG Transport Stream) is a standard container for transmitting and storing audio, video and PSIP data used in broadcast systems such as DVB and ATSC. TS is designed for reliable transmission over lossy media, using error-correction and synchronization features that make it the standard for digital TV broadcasts and captured streams.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a TS video file?▼
TS (Transport Stream) is the broadcast format used by digital TV (DVB, ATSC) and many set-top boxes. It is designed for streaming over unreliable channels, not for everyday playback.
Why convert TS to MP4?▼
TS files do not play well in most phones and editors. Converting to MP4 wraps the video and audio in a normal file that plays on every device.
Is a TS file the same as a video file?▼
Close — TS holds video and audio, but in a broadcast-shaped container that many players mishandle. Remuxing to MP4 keeps the same streams with no quality loss.
Does converting TS from a broadcast lose quality?▼
Not when remuxing (keeping the same codec). Re-encoding to a smaller MP4 does reduce size and some quality, but usually invisibly at high bitrates.
Are my TV recordings private when converting?▼
Yes. Conversion happens locally in your browser — recordings stay on your device.
