Playing "mpg-tts" files

Greetings to all,
A Toshiba TV I recently purchased saves TV shows as files with the extension "mpg-tts". Does Serviio recognize such files?
This is my first post, and would like to congratulate all members of this vibrant online community.

Thanks for the prompt reply Petr.
I'm afraid I have no idea how to do that. Is there
wiki I can refer to?

Look at signature below on how to give information on video that will not play.

Thanks guys.
Here's the ffmpeg -i on the file.

you probably have a file with spaces in the name, you have to put quotes around the file name like:
- Code:
ffmpeg -i "c:/my video/my fil.avi"

Or ffmpeg could not identified the format!

Could you try with MediaInfo tool (see signature link)?

Yes, the file was named "test.mpg-tts", so quotes weren't needed.
MediaInfo couldn't identify it either. Oh well, I guess that's that.
While googling around, I read the following info...
This media type identifies audiovisual streams multiplexed using an
extended MPEG-2 Transport Stream packet format. For the extended format, the
packet length is increased to 192 bytes with the first 4 bytes defining an
additional time stamp for networking usage. The remaining 188 bytes
correspond to the conventional MPEG-2 TS packet.

If ffmpeg and MediaInfo can not identify the format, we can not help you anymore.
ffmpeg supports MPEG2 Transport Stream format, *.ts and *.m2ts and others.
I'm curious, can you edit the file in hexadecimal and post the first 300 bytes here.

OK, I'll poke around and see if I can do that.

those files are normally used by Serviio on the way out, it's either the _ISO or _T profile name. Usually Ffmpeg could identify them no problem, any chance this particular file is corrupted? Can you play it in VLC for example?

Getting late here, but I'll take your advice and try another file tomorrow just in case the first was corrupted.
VLC "plays" the file but you get a blank screen and no audio, so something in the file is not allowing it to be read. Other people have had the same experience.
