This is a really small request, but could there be an option to not convert into .mp4 and just keep the original .ts extension? AFAIK, converting to .mp4 can cause issues when there are muted parts in the stream. So it would be nice to have this choice.
I am looking into this however a problem is that the non-finalized .ts files are noticeably larger because of the header packets in each .ts file. In order for this to be a feature I would like to remove or reduce these redundant packets by parsing and conservatively removing any packets that are extremely likely to be metadata.

"noticeably larger"
It's 7%, an acceptable amount for whoever wants it that way, plus it's bit-exact then.
The optimization can be added later as an extra option.
