Hmm, if the network type is unknown, obviously your pvr is stripping out some stuff that TSReader uses to determine the network type. It might not even be transport stream anymore. It is usually quite difficult to get decrypted transport stream out of a consumer STB. If the channel however isn't en

Most likely your problem is on a digicipher2 channel. Digicipher2 is a system that most cable companies use, and is slightly different than DVB (it was standardized just before DVB). Most of the files I have to cut with dvbcut because no other program will touch them are digicipher. There are some
