Andy, Hans,

I'm trying to wrap my head around this stuttering audio issue.  I think it
is likely the same reason the TS off the driver is not usable right now.

If it is a buffering issue, and given that the stream is muxed when it is
read in to the driver buffers from the chip, how is it that the video is so
stable?  I have near perfect video with the current driver, reading direct
from the device, but in less than a minute of playing it with mplayer I get
10s of drift between the video decoded and the audio decoded.

Is it possible there is some kind of sampling rate issue with the audio
stream before it ever hits the driver read buffer?

I understand that the video has both PTS and DTS stamps, which helps a
player put the stream back together for decode and presentation, but I would
expect to see errors if the video was wildly out of order or ahead or behind
schedule materially and I see almost no complaints about the video.  The
audio only has PTS stamps.

Just thinking out loud, but to get up to an apparent 10s of drift between
the video and audio seems like the problem must be before the buffered reads
in the driver given that the frames being read contain both video and audio?
