The fix will not be so obvious :)

Uh -oh!

In my experience TS support never worked well on transcode. Moreover,
having incomplete/lacking support lead to confusion. For those reasons
we're going to drop incomplete TS for 1.1.0 with few or none regrets so far.

I have no arguments with that, as such. Including a broken feature by default is usually a bad idea.

Just for the record, I'll happily reintroduce TS support in 1.1.0 if some patch pop out improving our situation. Speaking for myself, I firmly believe that only clean situation is restart from scratch (again!) rewriting all our MPEG
support code. mpeglib (http://fromani.exit1.org -- WARNING: is outdated)
is the way to go IMHO. Unfortunately, this will not happen before 1.2.0/1.3.0
following my schedule.


Is there anything to gain from "mythtranscode"? Looks like that's got usable MPEG_TS support.

No - don't tell me. Mythtranscode is just a re-wrapped "transcode, version 1.0.x" is it? :-)
