Imho there is no need to add anything to the PES data format. In live mode PCR is required to synchronize the internal clock of the decoder to the master clock of the transmitter. In replay mode the clock of the decoder is running free, i.e. it is the master clock. No need for a PCR or something like that. > Generally I don't think that VDR should have to to anything regarding > A/V sync during replay.

Does mplayer really play PES data 'as is'? Afaik it recodes data to MPEG-1.(?) Afaics it is a firmware/driver problem. It should be fixed there. Werner is currently working on a modified A/V sync code. We will see whether is improves things. Please be patient.
