## What it is
tsMuxer is a C++ transport stream muxer for remuxing/muxing elementary streams and container formats (EVO/VOB/MPG, MKV/MKA, MP4/MOV, TS, M2TS) into TS or M2TS. It supports H.264/AVC, H.265/HEVC, VC-1, and MPEG2 video plus AAC, AC3/E-AC3, and DTS/DTS-HD audio, with Blu-ray and AVCHD authoring features.

## Use cases
- remux mkv files to m2ts for playback on media players
- mux h264 elementary streams into a transport stream
- author compliant Blu-ray disc or AVCHD output
- extract DTS core from DTS-HD audio tracks
- join multiple video files into one transport stream
- change H.264 level or set muxing fps
- shift audio track timing in a mux

## When to choose
- you need to remux video/audio into TS or M2TS without re-encoding
- you want Blu-ray or AVCHD compliant output including 3D
- you need fine control over fps, H.264 level, or audio track offsets
- you're integrating muxing into a media server like Universal Media Server

## When to avoid
- you need Opus audio or MPEG-4 ASP support
- you need active development and ongoing bug fixes, as the project is no longer under development
- you want to transcode rather than remux streams
- you have 24-bit DTS Express audio, which has known issues
