So this issue seems to be > some problem on the PES packaging layer. I've done some more analysis on the file using dvbsnoop and checked the PES packet timings. Audio frame packets are present every 24ms, video packets are present every 40ms. All packets are present, no packets dropped. So much for stacked frames, at least on the PES layer every frame is present. In the stream, the audio packets are ahead of the video packets, on average by 470ms. (min: 137ms, max: 905ms.) This seems to be well inside the tolerance that the DVB driver can handle. The only disturbance I've noticed is a slight jitter in the PTS values of the audio packets, they are sometimes off by +/- 1, thats 0.01ms. I don't know whether the driver ignores such slight offsets, but I guess it probably does, esp. since it seems to never sync anyway. Cheers, Udo
