I'm currently using the CVS version. Your patch to the DVB code seemed
to break the DVB-T support. I didn't delve too much into it as I was
trying to fix the sync problems. When I have time later this week then I
shall see where the problems are and report back.

Yeah player seems to be much better. I have time I will look...

It only happens on channels with QAM16 and FEC 3/4 channels, the rest
seem to be fine. I get no picture break up and no artifacts. The stream
is fine apart from these errors. I get between 1 and 20 errors in 30
minutes of watching live tv.
I noticed that there's a new version of FFMPEG as of the 25th August
which purports to have full a/v sync fixes - not sure if it'll help. I
'm going to have a go at upgrading libavcodec and see if that helps
(since that is the source of the ac-tex errors).
