There is no > error detection of for that matter repair mechanism in replex yet. I don't know. Is there a program I can use to look at what PIDs are in a TS file. I have a 1 minute file which doesn't seem to have any errors. It's already 720x480 and the codec is mpgv, which is the correct codec for a DVD, right? ts2ps gives me this, which is good, I think.

I'd be happy to make the 1-minute file(s) available to someone if they wanted to play around with them.
