I am strongly against this. *.ts may conflict with KDE, but it is a usual ending for transport stream. Several mpeg-tools can handle this. I think the dreambox is also using *.ts for its recordings. *.mpg would give much more problems with applications. A TS is not an mpeg-file. Applications which can play mpg but not TS may even crash.
