Dunno if it is actually related to the sync problems but the PCR pid 
handling is definitly somehow wrong(or something related with that).
I stumbled about it when trying to find out why xine doesnt work with 
the ttusb_dec driver.
xine does something like that:
------
tune();
set_pcr_pid();
set_video_pid();
set_audio_pid();
read_data();
-----------
That means, in contrast to lots of other apps, it actually uses the PCR 
pid. Problem is that then it only gets audio data from the driver, but 
no video.
I verified that with a small test programm and further found out that if 
you just dont set the pcr pid everything works fine.
I havent found time to look deeper into that, but for a temporary 
workaround I commented out the part that is responsible for the pcr pid 
setting in the ttusb_dec driver.
