[MPlayer-users] udp multicast quick start

[James Courtier-Dutton]

Sounds to me that it is having trouble finding the PAT and PMT.
What created the ts file?
There are programs that ensure that the first thing in the file is the PAT
and PMT so that playing starts quickly.
For example, all mythtv files are stored that way.

"TS file format detected." I googled and found that adding a "-demuxer"
option would solve the problem, so i added "-demuxer +mpegts", it improved
only by 0.5 seconds, if i add "-demuxer mpeges" than its a very very quick
start but the video is very very bad.
