Frequently asked questions
Does MP4 to TS lose quality?
If the MP4 already uses H.264, it can be remuxed into a TS stream without re-encoding, keeping the picture bit-for-bit; only a source needing a codec change is re-encoded and thus lossy.
Why convert MP4 to TS?
Transport streams are used for digital TV, HLS streaming segments and playback that tolerates stream errors, so TS fits those pipelines.
What opens a TS file?
VLC opens TS on any operating system, and many hardware players and streaming tools expect the format directly.
Does the file size change?
A straight remux keeps roughly the same size, with a small increase from the fixed 188-byte packet overhead; re-encoding would change the size more.
