reproducable testcases would very usefull. Iam sure there are bugs in our mpeg ts muxer but possibly some of these are also just configuration issues. More generally and a maybe this is a little bit a rant ;) If all these slightly expensive Analysers would have been available to the wider community then the developers who worked on the related code would have been aware of the problems with details and would have been able to fix these when the code was originally written or at least long ago. As it is, its not unknown there are problems in the code but with no details and no easy way to test potential fixes, its not so easy to fix for many developers. There may be a very small number of developers who know mpeg-ts so well they can understand and fix bugs without any way to test but i think there are many more people who have a more shallow understaning and who have more time who could with detailed information of what is wrong and with the ability to test changes be able to fix these as well I hope my slightly random comment helps Iam not sure i have enough time to work on these myself but i would possibly be in principle be interrested to try/play with fixing some of these if there maybe was some sort of bounty on a working fix for each and i wouldnt have to commit myself to fixing it. mpeg-ts is not exactly my most favorite format and some of these might be non trivial or end up requiring large scale changes, i am also no mpeg-ts expert, i know the format only approximatly. Thats just my personal view, iam sure others have other views about mpeg-ts, our (buggy) implementation and how to best improve it. I do not know if theres someone who knows mpeg-ts well, has plenty of time and wants to fix all the issues. But if so, that would of course be best.
