Because MPEG supports MPEG-2 just like TS does, the video stream can be carried across without a quality-costing re-encode.
Embedded subtitle tracks will be lost. TS can carry them inside the file; MPEG has no place to store them, so export them separately first if you need them.
Anything above sd will be downscaled, because that is the practical ceiling for MPEG where TS reaches uhd4k.
At 1080p, TS typically runs around 15 Mbps while MPEG sits near 5.5 Mbps, which is the main driver of the size difference you will see.
This is an older container, introduced in 1993, and browsers will not play it directly. It is best suited to archival or a dedicated player.
This page converts TS files, stored in the MPEG-2 Transport Stream container since 1995, into MPEG, which uses MPEG-1/2 Program Stream and dates from 1993. The differences between the two containers decide what changes in the result.
TS comes from MPEG and dates to 1995. It carries MPEG-2, H.264, H.265, which is what determines the quality ceiling of anything you convert out of it.
MPEG was introduced by MPEG in 1993. It carries MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and has native playback on 1 of six platform categories, which is the practical reason to choose it as a target.
After converting your file, you can use Scriptivox transcription services to convert your audio to text. Perfect for meetings, interviews, podcasts, and more.
