About the formats
MPEG transport stream
TS (MPEG transport stream) is the container used for broadcast and HLS streaming. It is built to be resilient and split into segments, but is awkward as a stored file.
Strengths
- Built for streaming and broadcast
- Resilient to data loss
- Segments cleanly
Limitations
- Clumsy as a single saved file
- Limited direct player support
- Often needs remuxing
Best for: Captured broadcast/HLS streams — converted to MP4 for everyday playback.
MP3 audio
MP3 is the world’s most compatible audio format. Its lossy compression makes small files that play on every device and app, which is why it is still the default for music and podcasts.
Strengths
- Plays on virtually everything
- Small, convenient files
- Adjustable bitrate
Limitations
- Lossy — discards some audio detail
- Not ideal for archiving
- No lossless option
Best for: Music, podcasts and voice that need to play everywhere at a small size.
