I'm knee-deep in the quest. I'm currently trying to find a sort of MPEG2 stream analyzer, but with very minimal success. I'm trying to enlist the help of a local coding guru to maybe hack up some existing tools into one. Here's what I've found:

replex: Very nice at "cleaning" up MPEG2 files, reordering frames, and possibly keeping/fixing PTS issues

GOPchop: Still a bit broke
gopdit:  See above, but less so
vk_tools: Moldy, old, and slightly broken, but much closer to an analyzer

I'm thinking maybe something like an ethernet packet sniffer... look at *all* parts of the MPEG stream. It'd be good to be able to select by PIDs, stream types, NAV packets, etc, etc... all the goodies that are often overlooked in an "MPEG2 file"

Anyone know of anything like this? It could certainly help figure out some of the seemingly random issues in all the different types of MPEG2 out there.

Can anyone out there help me to understand the difference between a PVR350 MPEG2 recording and a Nova-T DVB MPEG2 recording?

I am trying to get avidemux to work with the DVB files so I can cut out ads; currently it barfs

People are talking .... talking about MPEG2 TS and MPEG2 PS.
Also I see info about replex, but I haven't managed to work out what to do with it.


Anyone out there help?

Cheers
