Description

Hi,

I noticed that when I use a VLC TS output as IPTV Service, it fails demuxing correctly and there are artifacts on video.
It happens only in HLS and in transcoding modes (when the stream is actually demuxed).

To test, you can use the sample file attached (output from VLC remux).
The file was generated using mux=ts in VLC.
Then in TVHeadend, add a new IPTV and select your TS input like this:

pipe:///bin/cat [PATH]/demuxing_fails.ts

Scan it and play it with Kodi or transcoded.

You will see a lot of decoding artifacts (and decoding errors if you actually transcode).

If you add ffmpeg to remux in the middle, it works:

pipe:///usr/bin/ffmpeg -i [PATH]/demuxing_fails.ts -vcodec copy -acodec copy -f mpegts -

It looks like a demuxer issue.

Thanks
