This section ID refers to so-called "DSM-CC Addressable Sections", which are used in ATSC systems for carrying (asynchronous) datagrams such as IP. Essentially, the section format is the same as in Multiprotocol Encapsulation (MPE) commonly used for IP-over-DVB, and implemented by dvbnet. However, MPE datagram sections have a table id of 0x3e, and the MPE dvbnet implementation filters on that (among other things), which means that it will (silently) discard other DSM-CC sections, like the one mentioned above. So without patching the code, you won't be able to receive the network traffic with dvbnet.
