Hi!

Ugh... this was supposed to go to the list as well.

Exactly.

I'm not sure how it's done.

An index of the available PES - including starting position and
timestamp, length, content type, avg/max bitrate and so on.

Hmm... maybe the lower (PS/TS) layers could indicate if the stream is
contiguous, and temporarily disable the correction algorithm if it
isn't. Alternatively, the algorithm could use a heuristic approach:
correct only small errors ("PTS jitter") and ignore other defects.
Otherwise, transport errors might cause A/V synchronization issues.
