Summary
VFO currently supports mkv_original, mp4_original, and m2ts_original lanes, but there is no first-class ts_original lane.
Why this matters
The codebase already recognizes .ts in some test/discovery paths, but there is no dedicated canonical lane for transport-stream sources. That makes TS handling inconsistent and less approachable than the other mezzanine/original workspace types.
Current state
Existing canonical source lanes appear to be:
mkv_original
mp4_original
m2ts_original
There does not appear to be a corresponding ts_original workspace path or config marker.
Expected behavior
If VFO is intended to support transport-stream mezzanine inputs as a first-class lane, it should expose a canonical ts_original workspace and wire it through the same discovery/config/profile flow as the other original lane types.
Notes
This is separate from the existing bug work around mkv_original / mp4_original path handling. That bug should still be fixed independently.
Suggested follow-up
Decide whether ts_original should be:
- an alias for
m2ts_original
- a distinct lane with its own runtime handling
- or intentionally unsupported, with the docs/tests updated to reflect that clearly
