TS at a glance
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.
It is useful as an operational and interchange format inside media infrastructure.
For easier library playback and casual sharing, MP4 or MKV are usually more convenient.
TXT at a glance
TXT
Convert to TXT when you need the words without the formatting.
It is a strong target for extraction, indexing, NLP preprocessing, OCR review, notes, and system handoffs where formatting would be lost anyway.
Use it when portability and text-only access matter more than layout, styling, or embedded media.
