TS vs MPEG Format Comparison
Aspect | TS (Source Format) | MPEG (Target Format) |
---|---|---|
Format Overview |
TS
MPEG Transport Stream
Container for real‑time broadcast and streaming with packetized delivery. Broadcast |
MPEG
MPEG‑1/2/4 Standard
Standardized container and codec family spanning MPEG‑1, MPEG‑2, and MPEG‑4. Standard |
Container/Codecs |
Supports MPEG‑2, H.264, H.265 video with AAC, AC‑3 audio in transport packets. |
Supports MPEG‑1/2 (video+MP2/MP3 audio) and MPEG‑4 Part 2/AVC (H.264) with AAC audio. |
Compression |
Efficient packetization for live delivery; moderate compression. |
Varied: MPEG‑1 low complexity, MPEG‑2 DVD quality, MPEG‑4 high efficiency. |
Quality |
Consistent SD/HD up to 4K depending on codec and bitrate. |
Ranges SD to Full HD/4K; MPEG‑4/AVC offers best quality at low bitrates. |
File Size |
8–200 MB per minute factoring packet overhead. |
10–200 MB/min for MPEG‑2; 1–50 MB/min for MPEG‑4 at comparable quality. |
Compatibility |
Native on broadcast equipment and set‑top boxes; desktop via players. |
Universal support: legacy for MPEG‑2, modern for MPEG‑4 across devices. |
Streaming Support |
Designed for broadcast/IPTV with low latency and error correction. |
MPEG‑4/AVC is standard for adaptive streaming (HLS, DASH); MPEG‑2 for broadcast. |

Tooling & Ecosystem |
|
|
Metadata Support |
PSI/SI tables, basic timecode for sync. |
Basic MPEG headers; MPEG‑4 supports chapters and timed metadata. |
Error Handling |
FEC and redundancy for broadcast resilience. |
Standard decoder concealment in MPEG‑2/4 implementations. |
Editing Support |
Often remuxed before editing workflows. |
Supported by modern NLEs; frame‑accurate editing in MPEG‑4/AVC. |
Why Convert TS to MPEG?
Converting TS to MPEG unifies your streams into a standardized format compatible with both legacy broadcast systems and modern streaming platforms.
Our tool converts TS containers into your choice of MPEG‑2 for DVD and broadcast or MPEG‑4/AVC for web and mobile, optimizing bitrate and preserving quality.
MPEG output is ideal for distributors, broadcasters, and online services seeking broad compatibility across devices and networks.
