This program converts HDTV MPEG2 tansport stream files to standard MPEG2 video files playable (mostly) by media player, many software DVD player programs, and readable by video converter programs like FlaskMPEG and Vidomi.

ATSC MPEG2 transport stream files are the raw data sent to your Digital television from the broadcaster, and contain multiple mpeg video and audio streams which can be tuned by your digital tuner. These streams differ from standard MPEG2 files in that they encapsulate the standard MPEG2 stream data in small 188 byte packets that are easy to transmit and decode.

HDTVtoMPEG2 simply processes the .TS transport stream files, extracting the data from each of these 188 byte packets, and reconstructing a standard MPEG2 file from them.
