MPEG-2 Transport Streams

An MPEG-2 Transport Stream (M2TS) is a standard containerized and packetized format to store audio, video, program and system information (and to transmit via the PSIP protocol) in error-prone environments. M2TS has widespread use in broadcast systems (DVB, ATSC) and even in some physical discs (Blu-Ray). ITU-T R H.222 provides for both transport and program streams.
