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 MP4

The MP4 format (MPEG-4 Part 14) is one of the most widespread video formats, developed by MPEG in 2001. Originating from Apple's QuickTime container format, it is part of the MPEG-4 standard and quickly established itself as an industry standard due to its versatility and efficiency.

This container format can encapsulate various types of data: video (mainly in H.264/AVC or H.265/HEVC codecs), audio (AAC, MP3), subtitles, and metadata. Its strength lies in its ability to maintain excellent visual quality while offering efficient compression rates, allowing for reasonably sized files. This makes it the ideal format for online streaming, video sharing on social networks, and digital content distribution.

MP4 enjoys universal compatibility, being supported by most media players, web browsers, smartphones, and tablets. It is especially appreciated for its robustness in adaptive streaming, notably with HLS and DASH protocols.

Its main limitations concern the file size, which remains significant for videos in very high quality, and the fact that some advanced codecs require licenses for commercial use. Despite these constraints, MP4 remains the preferred format for digital video distribution, combining quality, compatibility, and efficiency.
