Markus has left some of the copyright information in, but not all. However, I don't think he's infringing the GPL. All I would ask would be that he renames dvbstream to something else to avoid confusion with my version (which I am still developing). He has made quite a few changes to dvbstream - the main functional change is that his Windows client needs a Program Stream instead of the Transport Stream that my original dvbstream broadcasts. Markus has also added command-line options to indicate the input source (DVB card, file, stdin), and output target (network, file, stdout). He uses ts2ps from mpegtools in a pipe between two instances of dvbstream. I've read on the Elecard website that their MPEG-2 decoder can handle Transport Streams. Markus - is there a reason why you decided not to use this feature? The main reason I chose to multicast transport streams was so that I could potential transmit a whole transponder over a LAN (it multiple TV channels), and then the client could choose which service to receive.
