Here's a toy for you (PID detector) !

[neuron2]

I got bored today and decided to write a PID detector. It's a command line utility with the following usage:

>table filename

Obviously, use it on transport streams that carry PAT/PMT.

The zip file includes source code, from which you can see that PID detection is no trivial matter. This will be integrated into DVD2AVIdg.

Feedback will be appreciated.

Here is sample output:

G:\tmp\Zep>table abc.3.video.3.audio.streams.tp
------------------------------------------------
Table 1.0.1 -- PAT/PMT Parser by Donald A. Graft
------------------------------------------------

Program 1
PCR on PID 0x11
Video on PID 0x11
AC3 Audio on PID 0x14
Other on PID 0x1a
Program 2
PCR on PID 0x21
Video on PID 0x21
AC3 Audio on PID 0x24
Program 3
PCR on PID 0x31
Video on PID 0x31
AC3 Audio on PID 0x34

DVD2AVIdg 1.3.0 RC3 now has the PID detection integrated into the Stream menu.

Was just looking round for PID information. Thought about adding code to my program so I could detect PID's from a .ts file then just tell DGIndex which one I wanted, came across this post, great I thought, I'll check out this proggy and/or look at the source, links dead...

Is it still available or do you know a good place where I can get some information as well to find this information in a .ts file? Was looking through a .ts file with a HEX editor for a program stream header or similar and well, didn't get far, new to this .ts stuff.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This code was absorbed into DGIndex. Have a look at pat.cpp in the DGIndex source code. Note that there are a few bugs in the 1.3.0 release. The 1.4.0 source will be released shortly. You can find the specification for PAT/PMT in ISO 13818-1 in the Library section of my web site.

the link seems broken.

Yes, the link is no more. I have absorbed the code into DGIndex and do not support it as a stand-alone utility anymore.
