What is a ADTS file?

ADTS, or Audio Data Transport Stream, is a container format used primarily to store AAC audio streams. It breaks down audio data into small packets, making it ideal for streaming applications where quick transmission and synchronization are critical.

ADTS doesn’t provide metadata or advanced features like ID3 tags, but it excels in real-time scenarios like radio broadcasts or live audio feeds. It’s often used as an intermediate format before final encoding or transmission.

How to open ADTS files

ADTS files can be opened with media players like VLC, Foobar2000, and Audacity (with FFmpeg plugin). They’re also readable by programming tools that handle AAC streaming.

If you'd like to convert ADTS to a standard format like MP3 or WAV, AnyConv handles the job quickly online.
