I ran TSReader Lite and loaded a problematic file, but I don't see any indication of Digicipher2. Where should I look for that? The Network Type is 'unknown'. Source is a Transport Stream. No errors in the MPEG2 statistics. The PMT and PIDs are all detected correctly. It's really a useful program. I used to delete recordings because I couldn't find PIDs. Maybe now TSReader can help. Thanks again. Michael: I'll write back after I extract a sample and test it with DVBCut r138.
