Tvheadend

On Freeview in the UK a number of channels offer streams which are delivered over the internet (presumably Geolocked to the UK)

For example CCTV-9 Documentary

http://stream.arqiva.tv/cctv-9

If you try playing this in VLC, ProgDVB (using the LAV Audio Decoder) or on Android in BS Player it works fine - however in TVHeadend it starts okay then drops out (watching via XBMC and recording) - if you do a WGET you see the streaming at 1.5Mb/s quickly drop to nothing.

The PAT is as follows

Index    PID    Type    Language    Details
     0x006e /   110    PCR          
     0x0101 /   257    PMT          
1    0x0078 /   120    AAC          
2    0x006e /   110    H264          

After filtering and reordering (without PCR and PMT)
Index    PID    Type    Language    Details
2    0x006e /   110    H264          
1    0x0078 /   120    AAC

Prog DVB says

A: AAC,48000,2Ch - 64** kbit

• This bounces between about 900 and 2000 ** This bounces between 40 and 100 kbit

Is it possible for TVHeadend to support these streams or are we out of luck?
