Format TS

The TS (Transport Stream) format is a communication protocol developed as part of the MPEG-2 standard, initially designed for digital television.

TS is characterized by its robustness and ability to efficiently handle continuous broadcasting. It encapsulates data into 188-byte packets, a size optimized for transport across networks, and includes built-in error correction mechanisms. This structure allows for quick recovery of the stream in case of data loss, which is crucial for live broadcasting and streaming.

Widely used in television broadcasting via DVB, the TS format has also become popular for HLS streaming (HTTP Live Streaming) developed by Apple. It supports multiplexing of multiple audio, video, and data streams, allowing for the simultaneous transmission of different audio tracks or subtitles.

While the TS format excels in live broadcasting and streaming, it has some limitations for local file storage, particularly a larger file size compared to other container formats like MP4 or MKV. However, its reliability and low latency make it a preferred choice for professional broadcasting applications and live streaming services.

Format MOV

The QuickTime Movie format was developed by Apple in 1991 as the native container format for their QuickTime player. Originally designed for Macintosh systems, it has become one of the most widespread video formats in the professional creative industry.

The .mov utilizes a sophisticated modular architecture based on "atoms" that can contain different types of media, including video, audio, subtitles, and metadata. This flexibility allows storing high-quality videos with various codecs like ProRes, H.264, or DV while preserving excellent image quality.

Particularly valued in the world of post-production and professional video editing, the .mov format has become a de facto standard in the film and television industry. Its ability to maintain high quality while allowing for non-destructive editing makes it a preferred choice for professional editing software. However, its main limitation lies in the large file sizes, especially when using professional codecs.

Though initially developed for the Apple ecosystem, the .mov format is now widely compatible with most operating systems and media players. This universality, combined with its quality and flexibility, makes it a still relevant choice for audiovisual professionals, despite the emergence of newer formats.
