TS Cutter: Cut TS Files with 4 Video Trimming Tools [Offline/Online]

The TS file format is mainly used to store MPEG-2 video streams, and these files are frequently seen on DVDs. You may also have some .ts videos when downloading online, as some broadcast applications adopt the TS file format to transmit media files over the internet. Moreover, some digital cameras also use TS as the output format of recorded videos.

If your TS files are too large or too long, you can cut them for smaller sizes or shorter clips. So the following will show you some simple and free TS cutters to help with your work.
