RMVB to TS Converter
Processing entirely on your device — large files may take a moment.
TS recordings need conversion to MP4 before editing or sharing on normal platforms. If your files are still in RMVB format, this page is the shortcut: RMVB is RealMedia with variable-bitrate video — the format Asian fan-sub communities distributed dramas and movies in throughout the 2000s.
This converter runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly — your files never leave your device, nothing is uploaded, and there are no watermarks, sign-ups or queues. Drop in several files at once to convert them as a batch.

About the RMVB format
RMVB is RealMedia Variable Bitrate — the 2000s fan-sub community's format of choice for distributing TV dramas and movies across dial-up-adjacent bandwidths. The VBR twist let action scenes take more bits than talking heads, which static-bitrate RM handled badly.
Conversion to MP4 is the standard migration: the RV40 video decodes through ffmpeg, and a modern H.264 re-encode is usually smaller at the same perceived quality.
+ Strengths
- ✓VBR suited the bandwidth of its era
- ✓Huge corpus of Asian drama content
- ✓Decodes through ffmpeg
! Limitations
- −Mostly SD resolution content
- −RV40 codec support varies by build
- −Licensing strings in some files
About the TS format
TS (MPEG Transport Stream) is the packetized format of broadcast television — DVB, ATSC, ISDB — and of AVCHD/Blu-ray camera segments. Fixed 188-byte packets make it resilient: a damaged broadcast moment corrupts one packet, not the file. That is exactly what broadcast needs and exactly why TS wastes bytes compared to MP4.
TS plays fine in VLC and other full-featured players but not in browsers or social platforms, so camera clips and recorded broadcasts end up converted to MP4 for anything beyond local viewing.
+ Strengths
- ✓Broadcast-grade resilience to transmission errors
- ✓Native format of TV capture and AVCHD cameras
! Limitations
- −No web or social platform support
- −Packet overhead inflates file size

Frequently asked questions
Is this RMVB to TS converter really free?
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily conversion limits. The site is supported by advertising.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so your files never leave your device — that is what makes it instant and private.
Does it work on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android?
Yes. Anything with a modern browser works: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. No software installation is required.
Is there a file size limit for RMVB to TS?
The only limit is your device's memory, since nothing is uploaded. Files up to a few hundred megabytes work fine on a modern desktop browser; very large files simply take a little longer.
Will the audio track be kept?
Yes. The audio is carried over and re-encoded to the standard audio codec of TS, staying in sync with the video. If your RMVB file has multiple audio tracks, the first one is used.
Why is video conversion slower than image conversion?
Every frame has to be decoded and re-encoded. This site runs that work on your own CPU via WebAssembly — nothing is uploaded, but a multi-minute video reasonably takes a few minutes. Images, by comparison, are single-frame jobs.
