Now that I looked at the MPEG-TS packets I see a pretty obvious reason
why packets probably aren't getting through even though a PID filter
is being added.
As far as I can tell, the payload_unit_start_indicator (aka the
is_start variable) is never set to 1, thus most likely not triggering
the logic meant for PES packets.
