Why convert CRW to TS?

Convert to TS when the destination expects transport streams, such as broadcast workflows, segment-based media handling, receiver recordings, or other systems where packetized streaming compatibility matters.

For easier library playback and casual sharing, MP4 or MKV are usually more convenient.

What changes when converting CRW to TS?
