Convert MPG4 to TRP

Understanding mpg4 and trp file formats

MPG4 (commonly referred to as MPEG-4) is a digital multimedia format used for compressing audio and video data. It is widely used for streaming and storing video content due to its efficient compression and compatibility with many devices and platforms.

TRP is a high-definition video file format used primarily for broadcasting. It is based on the MPEG-2 transport stream and is commonly used for storing video data from satellite receivers, set-top boxes, and digital video recorders. TRP files can contain multiple video, audio, and subtitle streams.
