Yepp. Checked a new recording, and the H264 HD TS from Astra is
720p50 with actual 50 frames,

As mentioned, a lot of over-the-air programming has duplicated frames.

upscaled from SD.)

the mediaportal H264 mp4 file is 720p50 but actually 720p25 with
duplicated frames,

I never noticed that. :-/ (Why would they duplicate them?) I don't have
any "true 50 fps" show to check right now. A random ARD Mediathek

There is something 50 about the chunks, in that it's one of those streams that mplayer will play at 50 (using its own ts demuxer, lavf is OK).

Maybe VLCs ts demuxer decides it should dup.

I don't know how to get a raw stream with ffmpeg ie. just cat the chunks together.

Looking at the output of below then using wget is how I grabbed one to test.

At time of testing it looked like the content was only ever going to be 25fps anyway.

ffmpeg -loglevel verbose -i http://hls.tagesschau.de/i/video/2016/1122/TV-20161122-2026-4701.,webs,websm,webm,webml,webl,webxl,.h264.mp4.csmil/index_5_av.m3u8 -f null -

Other random observation = no CABAC!
