As far as I know, this is a DVB driver issue.
The DVB API seems to only synchronize audio and video on stream start, 
and not later on. If complete audio or video frames get dropped, then 
the two streams get out of sync and stay out of sync. This only affects 
unreliable streams, so it works quite well on most systems.

It would be quite difficult to fix such stream errors before passing the 
stream to DVB, so I guess this is either a driver or a firmware issue.

Cheers,
