TS vs 3GP Format Comparison
Aspect | TS (Source Format) | 3GP (Target Format) |
---|---|---|
Format Overview |
TS
MPEG Transport Stream
Container format for broadcast and streaming applications, optimized for real-time delivery. Broadcast |
3GP
3rd Generation Partnership Project
Lightweight container format for mobile devices, based on MPEG-4 Part 12 (ISO base media file format). Mobile |
Container/Codecs |
Supports MPEG-2, H.264, H.265 video with AAC, AC-3 audio; designed for packetized transport. |
Supports H.263, H.264 video and AMR, AAC audio; optimized for low-bitrate mobile playback. |
Compression |
Efficient packetization, maintains sync and low-latency delivery at moderate bitrates. |
High compression for low-bandwidth environments, balancing quality and file size. |
Quality |
Reliable SD to HD delivery depending on codec; tuned for consistency in streaming. |
Optimized for QCIF to VGA resolutions; suitable for basic mobile display. |
File Size |
Comparable to MPG with overhead for transport packets; 8–200 MB per minute. |
Very compact (0.5–20 MB per minute) depending on resolution and bitrate. |
Compatibility |
Supported in set-top boxes, digital TV, broadcast servers; limited desktop without tools. |
Universal on feature phones and older smartphones; supported by most mobile media players. |
Streaming Support |
Designed for live and broadcast streaming with error correction features. |
Supported via progressive download; not ideal for adaptive streaming. |

Tooling & Ecosystem |
|
|
Metadata Support |
PSI/SI tables for streams, basic timecode and synchronization data. |
Minimal metadata: basic file headers and simple tags. |
Error Handling |
Advanced error correction (FEC) for broadcast robustness. |
Simple packet drop handling; tolerant of mobile network losses. |
Editing Support |
Typically remuxed into TS or MP4 for timeline editing. |
Rarely edited directly; often reconverted to MP4 for post-production. |
Why Convert TS to 3GP?
Converting TS to 3GP delivers compact, mobile-friendly video files ideal for legacy handsets and low-bandwidth sharing. 3GP’s lightweight structure ensures quick downloads and broad compatibility.
Our converter transforms your broadcast-ready TS streams into the efficient 3GP container, encoding with H.264 or H.263 and mobile-optimized audio to minimize file size while preserving clarity.
3GP is perfect for content delivery to basic mobile devices, MMS messaging, and applications where small footprint and device compatibility are paramount.
