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 Standard definition will be downscaled, because that is the practical ceiling for MPEG where TS reaches 4K UHD.
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 video, stored in the MPEG-2 Transport Stream container since 1995, into MPEG, which uses MPEG-1/2 Program Stream and dates from 1993. The codecs each container accepts decide whether the picture has to be re-encoded.
TS comes from MPEG and dates to 1995. It usually holds MPEG-2, H.264, or H.265 video with AAC, AC-3, or MP2 sound, and those streams set the ceiling for anything converted out of it.
MPEG comes from MPEG and dates to 1993. It holds MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 video alongside MP2 or MP3 audio, and without installing anything it plays on Windows.
