Supports MPEG-2, H.264, H.265 video with AAC, AC-3 audio; packetized transport.

Typically uses Sorenson Spark or VP6 video with MP3/PCM audio in an FLV wrapper.

Compression

Efficient packetization for streaming, optimized for low latency.

Moderate compression, best for older streaming workflows.

Quality

SD to HD quality depending on codec; consistent delivery.

Standard definition quality; limited by older codecs.

File Size

Comparable to MPEG-TS with stream overhead; ~8–200 MB/min.

Smaller (~10–80 MB/min) but less efficient than modern formats.

Why Convert TS to FLV?

Converting TS to FLV allows you to preserve and play legacy Flash-based streams and archived web videos originally delivered via Adobe Flash Player.

Our converter transmuxes and re-encodes your TS streams into the FLV container, ensuring compatibility with older streaming workflows and archived platforms.

FLV output is ideal for maintaining legacy content, embedding in historical projects, or migrating archived videos into a unified, playable format.
