MpegTs Muxer and Demuxer

[Baby Octopus]

As everyone knows, these TSelements are probably the most used "bad" plugins. Was wondering if it makes sense to migrate code pertaining to TS muxing and demuxing from VLC and create two new elements(now that most of VLC come under LGPL) So any inputs and suggestion on this?

I am also very concerned about you mentioned,
on your advice, you know there is any progress Well?

There hasn't been any work on this. You can consider bringing in some timing related algorithm from VLC

mpegtsmux has issues in terms of PCR accuracy, maintaining CBR rate etc. I haven't been able to decode the stream generated by mpegtsmux in any STB. That was long back. But I dont think anything has changed in that plugin significantly apart from supporting more codecs

Yes these problems with mpegtsmux are well-known, and also the solution
to them. It just needs someone to actually care enough to get it
implemented :)


For the demuxer, there shouldn't be any problems but if there are
please file a bug in Bugzilla.

For some files,
Tsdemuxer seems to have a particularly high requirement for the accuracy of pcr？

Sorry, not sure, just
I am now blocked on this issues, hoping to have tsdemuxer experts, give some advice.
