SYS stands for MPEG1 system stream, i.e. MPEG1 audio and video already muxed.
What does SPTS stand for?

MPEG1/2 and MP1/2 means PES acoording to MPEG1/2 standard in video and
audio, respectively. There is no ES option yet, but could be added, of course.
There is no AVPES, it is not needed in any way and should not be
supported.
