Plain TS playing not supported; DVB-T stream

Postby anahuj » 27 Jan 2018 15:13

Hi. VLC is not able to play the plain TS stream files recorded from DVB-T device. The files contains standard DVB-T's TS-blocks. There is no a header block which some digital TV recorders adds to the recordings.

Xine of GNU/Linux is able to play the files, with subtitles. But now I'm using Windows.

If you implement player for these plain TS files, please play the multipart plain-TS files as one continuous file. My DVB-T recorder splitted files to 1 GB parts because of convenience and because then I could record hours of digital TV; like Olympics games.

You may also assume the TS files contains only one channel. Xine provided selection for audio and subtitles channel, but I don't remember what happened if the stream had multiple TV channels; most probably failed because I usually separated the TV channels if I recorded multiple from one DVB-T stream.
