Convert TS to MXF
Fast, free, and secure TS to MXF conversion. No registration required.
Your ts files deserve a proper conversion to mxf. Xonvert ensures high quality output every single time. You start with MPEG-TS Video, which excels at error-resilient streaming format for broadcast television. The output MXF Video format provides broadcast-grade container with comprehensive metadata support. Over 91% of Xonvert users converting video files choose this exact format pair. The tool handles all the technical details automatically — codec selection, quality settings and metadata.
Why Switch from TS to MXF?
There are strong reasons to convert TS to MXF:
API and automation: Many automated workflows and APIs expect MXF Video as input, making this conversion necessary for programmatic processing.
Editing flexibility: MXF Video files can be opened in a wider range of editing software, giving you more options for further modifications.
Collaboration ease: Team members and collaborators are more likely to have software that opens MXF Video natively, reducing compatibility friction.
Smaller file size: Lossy compression in MXF Video often produces significantly smaller files than MPEG-TS Video, saving storage space and bandwidth.
Faster loading: MXF Video files decode faster on most systems, reducing wait times when opening or streaming content.

Will You Lose Quality Converting TS to MXF?
For video-to-video conversions, Xonvert applies format-aware algorithms that respect the unique characteristics of both MPEG-TS Video and MXF Video. Converting within the same category means most properties transfer naturally. Frame rate, resolution, and aspect ratio are maintained during conversion. Xonvert avoids unnecessary re-encoding when possible. When converting from MPEG-TS Video to MXF Video, some quality trade-off occurs due to lossy compression, but Xonvert uses optimal settings to minimize any visible degradation.
Video format conversion from MPEG-TS Video to MXF Video involves re-encoding or remuxing the video stream. Xonvert selects the most efficient encoding strategy — remuxing when possible (zero quality loss) and re-encoding with optimal parameters when the target format requires a different codec. Key factors include codec compatibility, resolution handling, and audio stream preservation.
Resolution handling: Your video's original resolution is preserved by default. You can optionally downscale in the settings panel to reduce file size — useful when preparing content for mobile viewing or web upload.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the TS to MXF conversion work technically?▼
Xonvert uses WebAssembly-compiled libraries to decode your TS file in-browser, process the video data, and re-encode it as MXF. All processing happens on your device's CPU.
What happens to my files after conversion?▼
Nothing — your files exist only in your browser's memory during conversion. Once you close the page, all data is cleared. No files are stored anywhere.
What is TS format?▼
MPEG-TS Video is MPEG Transport Stream used in broadcasting and streaming. It is primarily used for digital television broadcast, IPTV and live streaming. Fixed 188-byte packets with error correction capabilities
Will the conversion strip my EXIF or metadata?▼
Xonvert preserves metadata (EXIF, XMP, ID3, etc.) when the target MXF format supports it. You can optionally strip metadata in the settings for smaller, cleaner output files.
Does the conversion preserve metadata?▼
Xonvert preserves compatible metadata fields when converting between formats. Some format-specific metadata may not carry over if the target format doesn't support it.
Can I share the converted MXF file directly?▼
Yes. After conversion, you can download the MXF file and share it via email, messaging apps, cloud storage, or any other method you prefer.
Does converting TS to MXF change the resolution?▼
No. The original resolution is preserved by default. You can optionally resize in the settings panel if you need different dimensions.
