TS to WebM Converter

Turn TS files into WebM in a couple of clicks. TS is a broadcast and camcorder stream format (AVCHD); WebM is an Open, royalty-free container built for the web. Some detail is discarded to fit the target format; how much depends on the format and your settings.

How to use it

1
Add your TS files
Drag them onto the drop area, choose them from your device, or paste them from your clipboard. You can queue several at once. Nothing is sent anywhere — the file stays on this device.
2
Adjust the settings if you want to
The defaults suit most people. Open Advanced to control codec, resolution and bitrate and the audio track.
3
Convert and download
Press Convert. Everything happens on your own device — nothing is uploaded. Download files one by one, or grab them all as a ZIP.

Privacy, in plain words

Is it safe? Your TS file is not uploaded anywhere

What “uploaded” normally means. On most online converters, pressing the button copies your file across the internet onto a computer owned by that website. That copy is what the word “upload” means, and it is the part nobody explains.

What happens instead. This site does not do it. There is no server here that receives files, so your TS file is read, converted and handed back by the browser you are using right now. It never travels — so there is no copy to store, read, leak or hand over.

Check it yourself in ten seconds

Turn off your Wi-Fi after this page has loaded, then convert a file anyway. It still works, because everything needed is already on your device.

The longer explanation of how this works, and the full detail of what is and is not stored on the privacy page.

Why this matters more than it sounds

Video is the format where the thing being converted is usually a recording of people, and often of people who did not expect a third party to have a copy. It matters more than it sounds, because of what video files usually are:

Recorded meetings and calls

everything said, by everyone in the room

Interviews

sources and participants who consented to you, not to a website

Security-camera footage

your home or premises, and who was in it

Family videos

children, addresses, the inside of your house

A file that is never sent cannot be kept, leaked, subpoenaed or used to train anything. That is a property of how this works, not a promise about how carefully it is run.

TS and WebM explained

MPEG Transport Stream was designed for broadcast, where a receiver might tune in at any moment. It is built from small self-contained packets, which makes it resilient to errors but awkward to edit.

WebM is an open, royalty-free container built for the web, holding VP8/VP9 or AV1 video with Vorbis or Opus audio. It exists specifically so browsers can ship video support without patent licensing.

Where TS files come from: AVCHD camcorders, TV recordings, and HLS streaming segments.
Where WebM is used: Web video, and exports from browser-based recording tools.

TS vs WebM

The two formats solve different problems, which is why converting between them involves trade-offs rather than a straight upgrade.

TS compared with WebM
Property	Source	Target
Compression	Container (depends on codec)	Container (depends on codec)
Animation	Yes	Yes
Introduced	1995	2010
Browser support	Media players yes, browsers and editors often no.	All modern browsers. Weak native OS support.

TS is stronger at: Robust to data loss. Can be joined by simple concatenation. The backbone of HLS streaming.
WebM is stronger at: Royalty-free with no licensing obligations. Smaller than H.264 MP4 at similar quality. Supported by all modern browsers.

Why convert TS to WebM?

People make this switch when they run into the limits of TS: editing or sharing — convert to MP4 first. WebM is the better fit when serving video on your own website.

TS limitations that prompt the switch: Editors often refuse it. No browser support as a standalone file. Higher overhead than MP4.
What you give up: Poor support in desktop players, editors and on TVs. Slower to encode than H.264.

Does converting TS to WebM reduce quality?

WebM compresses without discarding data, but it cannot represent everything a TS file holds. What does not fit is discarded permanently, so converting the result back will not restore it. Keep the TS original if it is the only copy.

Measured, not estimated

What converting TS to WEBM actually costs

It depends entirely on the content: across the samples the WEBM ranged from 2.8× smaller to 15% larger, with a middle case 25% smaller.

Each row is one sample chosen to isolate a property these formats treat differently.
Sample	TS in	WEBM out	Change
An easy clipThe compressible end of the range — a clean tone, or a moving test pattern — where a codec does its best work.	81.5 KB	94.1 KB	+15%
A hard clipThe other end — pink noise, or dense video grain. Close to incompressible by design, and the worst case for every codec.	1.0 MB	362 KB	−65%

Produced by this site's own converter. The same code that runs in your browser, at the same default settings, so these are the bytes you would download.

Samples are generated from a fixed seed rather than taken from real photographs or documents, so the corpus is reproducible and carries no licensing question — and so the numbers predict the shape of your result rather than its exact size.

About these formats

Source

MPEG Transport Stream

Broadcast and camcorder stream format (AVCHD).

Extensions: .ts, .m2ts, .mts
MIME type: video/mp2t
Best for: Camcorder footage · TV recordings · HLS segments
Compatibility: Media players yes, browsers and editors often no.

Target

WebM Video

Open, royalty-free container built for the web.

Extensions: .webm
MIME type: video/webm
Best for: Websites · Open-source projects · Small file sizes
Compatibility: All modern browsers. Weak native OS support.

WebM is encoded with VP9, which is slower than H.264 but produces smaller files. Long clips will take a while.

TS to WebM Converter — questions

How do I convert TS to WebM?

Drop your TS file onto the area above, then press Convert. The WebM file saves straight to your device. You do not need an account, and there is no watermark.

Is it safe to convert TS files here — are they uploaded to a server?

No, nothing is uploaded. On most online converters, pressing the button copies your file across the internet onto a computer owned by that website; it is converted there and sent back. That copy is what "upload" means, and it is the part that puts your file out of your control. This site does not do it. Your TS file is read and converted by the browser you are using right now and never leaves this device, so there is no copy for anyone to store, read or hand over. You can prove it: turn off your Wi-Fi after this page loads and the conversion still works.

Can I convert confidential TS files, like bank statements or contracts?

Yes, and that is the case this site was built for. Because the file never leaves your device, a confidential document is no more exposed than it is sitting in your own folder — there is no transfer, no copy on someone else's hardware, no retention period to read about and no staff with access. Nothing is logged about the file either: not its name, not its size, not its contents. The one thing worth saying plainly is that this protects the file in transit and at rest on our side, not from anything already on your own computer.

What should I know before converting TS to WebM?

WebM is encoded with VP9, which is slower than H.264 but produces smaller files. Long clips will take a while.

Does converting to WebM reduce quality?

Yes, though not through compression — WebM stores what it holds without discarding data, but it cannot hold everything a TS file does. What does not fit is dropped permanently, and converting the result back will not bring it back.

How large a file can I convert?

Up to 512 MB per file for this conversion. Because the work happens in your browser, the practical limit is your device's memory — larger files work on a desktop with plenty of RAM and may fail on an older phone.

Can I convert several files at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like and press Convert All. Each file is processed independently, so one failure does not stop the rest, and you can download everything together as a ZIP.

Can I use this on my phone?

Yes. FileTools360 works in mobile browsers on iOS and Android, including choosing files straight from your camera roll. Very large videos may run out of memory on a phone — those are better converted on a laptop.
