About Flash Video (FLV)
Flash Video (FLV) is the container Adobe Flash Player used to stream video on the web, typically with H.264 or the older Sorenson Spark and VP6 codecs.
Videos saved from websites of the Flash era and from some older streaming and recording tools.
Adobe ended Flash Player at the end of 2020 and browsers removed it, so FLV files need a converter or a desktop player such as VLC.
Convert FLV to TS online free, no account required — TS is the broadcast and Blu-ray transport stream format.
Change FLV to TS without losing quality — convert FLV to TS free in your browser.
Why won't my old FLV videos play anywhere anymore? Flash Player was retired at the end of 2020 and browsers dropped support, so the only practical way to keep them is converting to MP4.
About MPEG Transport Stream (TS)
An MPEG transport stream (TS, MTS, M2TS) is the container used for digital TV broadcasting and Blu-ray. It is built from small fixed-size packets that tolerate transmission errors.
TV recordings, AVCHD camcorder files (.mts), Blu-ray discs (.m2ts) and HLS streaming segments.
The packet structure adds overhead, and many editors and phones do not open TS files directly.
Why convert video to MPEG TS? Broadcast workflows and set-top boxes expect the transport stream, which also tolerates interrupted recordings gracefully.
What changes when you convert FLV to TS
- The FLV is re-encoded into TS at the default quality settings, so the result looks close to the original but is not bit-identical.
Settings you can change
Before you convert FLV to TS, you can adjust: Video codec, Rate control, Quality (CRF), Video bitrate, Resolution, Width, Height, Scale fit, Frame rate, Encoder preset, Audio codec, Audio bitrate, Trim start, Trim duration, and Remove metadata.
Limits
Each plan sets a maximum file size and a number of conversions per day, and video and audio files also have a maximum length. Guests can convert files up to 100 megabytes and 5 per day; a free account raises this to 500 megabytes and 25 per day; paid plans go up to 100 gigabytes.
Your converted TS file is kept for 2 hours, then deleted.
