M3U Stream format - HLS v MPEG-TS - which?

Hi all. Forgive my ignorance but is there an advantage or a use case I should be aware of for HLS stream v MPEG-TS streams when adding an M3U playlist? Is it what I want (and which do I want?) or is it based on what the M3U provider is sending. If the latter, how do I know?

It's based on the source. Check there or ask whoever is providing the streams.

Typically HLS stream urls end in .m3u8
