MPEG-TS is used to contain h264 chunks for HLS. MPEG-DASH and the new CMAF standard use fMP4 containers instead. My personal take is that Media over QUIC (MoQ) should support both.
- TD-Linux 4mo agoHLS also supports fMP4 now and no one is making new services that use TS (there are some old ones still around with too much friction to switch)
- lxgr 4mo agoThe nice thing about fMP4 is that it's supported by both HLS and MPEG-DASH, so you can save yourself the effort of duplicating all data at the CDN level (or using a CDN that can just-in-time assemble fMP4 and M2TS files from the same underlying source).
