What changes when you convert TS to WAV
This extracts the audio and discards the video entirely. The soundtrack inside a TS file is typically AAC, and it is re-encoded to PCM on the way out.
Expect a much smaller file. Video accounts for most of the bytes, so about 113 MB per minute becomes roughly 21 MB per minute of WAV.
Choosing lossless WAV means nothing further is lost, though it cannot exceed the AAC track stored in the source video.
Subtitles do not survive audio extraction, since an audio container has nowhere to store them.
When a video holds several audio tracks, the main one is extracted; alternate language tracks are not merged into the result.
About TS to WAV Conversion
Extracting WAV audio from a TS video pulls the soundtrack out of the MPEG-2 Transport Stream container and writes it as a standalone RIFF WAVE file. The video stream, which holds most of the data, is discarded.
Developed by MPEG in 1995, TS stores audio using MPEG-2, H.264, H.265. That codec choice sets the upper bound on what any conversion can preserve.
WAV, from Microsoft / IBM and dating to 1991, uses PCM and plays natively on 5 of the six platform categories we track. That combination is usually why people convert into it.
After converting your file, you can use Scriptivox transcription services to convert your audio to text. Perfect for meetings, interviews, podcasts, and more.
