| Description | The Matroska Multimedia Container is an open standard free container format, a file format that can hold an unlimited number of video, audio, picture, or subtitle tracks in one file. It is intended to serve as a universal format for storing common multimedia content, like movies or TV shows. | The .TS file format is used to broadcast high-definition TV (HDTV) - it is specifically designed for less reliable transmission and broadcast fits well with this. When the signal gets degraded the transport stream (TS) can handle error correction and stream synchronization issues much better than other formats. |
| Technical details | Matroska is similar in concept to other containers like AVI, MP4, or Advanced Systems Format (ASF), but is entirely open in specification, with implementations consisting mostly of open source software. | Transport stream (TS) is specified in MPEG-2, and it is a standard format for transmission and storage of audio, video, and data, and is used in broadcast systems such as DVB and ATSC. Various elements make up a transport stream - namely; Packet - A packet is the basic unit of data in a transport stream, PID - Each table or elementary stream in a transport stream is identified by a 13-bit packet ID (PID), Programs - Transport stream has a concept of programs. Each single program is described by a Program Map Table (PMT) which has a unique PID, Program Specific Information(PSI) - There are 4 PSI tables: Program Association (PAT), Program Map (PMT), Conditional Access (CAT), and Network Information (NIT), PAT - PAT stands for Program Association Table. It lists all programs available in the transport stream, PMT - Program Map Tables (PMTs) contain information about programs, PCR - To enable a decoder to present synchronized content, such as audio tracks matching the associated video, at least once each 100 ms a Program Clock Reference, or PCR is transmitted in the adaptation field of an MPEG-2 transport stream packet |
