This sounds like vlc's way of saying "I don't understand MPEG TS".

I do almost exactly this and view the result with mplayer, which
recognizes it without problems.  Note that the timing information in
the stream can be crazy (here, for some reason, it wraps around about
every 26½ hours).  I've done a few patches to mplayer to try to
display saner times, but they don't work all the time.
