The Matroska video file format, .mkv, is an open source video file container which is part of the larger open source Matroska Multimedia Container which includes .mka (audio), .mks (subtitles), and .mk3D (stereoscopic video). It was first developed in 2002 and is today favored by many video authors because of the size of produced files. In 2010 the mkv format became the basis of the popular browser independent open format called WebM with several free video players providing playback support for video files encoded in .mkv. Microsoft Windows does not have native support for .mkv video files but there are plans to include native playback support in Microsoft's upcoming operating system Windows 10.
TS (MPEG Transport Stream) is a standard format for transmission and storage of audio and video. It is used in broadcast systems and Blu-ray discs.
FreeFileConvert uses tuned encoding for MKV to TS conversions, preserving clarity while trimming file size. Finished audio streams instantly across phones, tablets, desktops, and modern browsers without extra tweaks.
Upload MKV files from desktop, tablet, or cloud storage, queue multiple jobs, and let the converter finish autonomously. Return whenever convenient to download synchronized TS results on any device you rely on.
Process up to 5 files sized 1000 MB per batch without splitting queues manually. Mixed-format uploads convert together, producing consistent TS audio with dependable progress tracking.
Any video player that supports DirectShow parser filters can play .mkv files once the correct decoder filers for the video file are installed. Players such as VLC or Xine have native support for .mkv files which eliminates the need to install the DirectShow decoder filter onto the operating system. The .mkv file format is capable of supporting chapter points, subtitles, different audio streams, video, and well as metadata such as file descriptions, synopsis, cover art and more.
TS files contain multiple programs with video, audio, and metadata. They support error correction for unreliable transmission.
