TV Kitchen Utility: MPEG-TS Demuxer

This package demuxes packets from an MPEG transport stream.

It is a modified fork of the excellent TSDemuxer package created by Logan Kearsley. The overall project was started as a JavaScript / TypeScript implementation of Anton Burdinuk's C++ MPEG-TS demuxer.

How to Use

The MpegTsDemuxer is a NodeJS Transform stream which means it supports the Read and Write stream APIs. It consumes raw mpegts data as a stream and emits Packet objects as they are parsed.

import { MpegTsDemuxer } from 'mpegts-demuxer'
import { createReadStream } from 'fs'

const fileStream = fs.createReadStream('myFile.ts')
const mpegTsDemuxer = new MpegTsDemuxer()
fileStream.pipe(mpegTsDemuxer)
mpegTsDemuxer.on('data', (packet) => {
	console.log(packet)
})
