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 won't my media player open the .ts file I recorded? A transport stream is written for broadcast, so many players expect a renamed or converted container before they accept it.
About AVI
AVI (Audio Video Interleave) is a container format Microsoft introduced in 1992 for video on Windows.
Older cameras, Windows software and video collections from the 1990s and 2000s.
AVI predates modern codecs and has no native support for features such as variable frame rate, so it is rarely used for new video.
Why convert video to AVI today? Mainly for older Windows software and DVD-era players that accept nothing else.
