Convert TRP to AAC

Understanding TRP and AAC file formats

TRP is a video file format that stands for MPEG-2 Transport Stream. It is commonly used for high-definition video on DVDs and satellite receivers. TRP files can contain multiple streams of video, audio, and data, making them suitable for broadcasting and recording purposes.

AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) is a popular audio file format known for its efficient compression and high audio quality. AAC is widely used in streaming, broadcasting, and portable devices, and is supported by most modern media players.

Why convert TRP to AAC?

Converting a TRP file to AAC allows you to extract the audio track from a video stream and save it as a standalone audio file. This is useful if you want to listen to the audio separately, use it in a music library, or reduce file size for portable devices.
