[xine-devel] Demux of Transport streams problem. PES Packet length of zero.

[James Courtier-D. <Ja...@su...>]

Hello
Here is an extract from the H.222 standard for MPEG-2.

>PES_packet_length – A 16-bit field specifying the number of bytes in the
PES packet following the last byte of the
>field. A value of 0 indicates that the PES packet length is neither
specified nor bounded and is allowed only in
>PES packets whose payload consists of bytes from a video elementary stream
contained in Transport Stream packets.

While testing the demux_ts.c for xine with some sample streams.
I have found some Transport Stream packets with this value of zero for the
Video (E0) PES packet length.

So my question is this.
How the smeg do we handle this in xine ?
There is no advice on what to do in any documents I have.

Cheers
James
