You can get tzap to record to file with -o fname

If you ever want to play the stream on an overly pedantic player like 
vlc you would also need -p to record that pat and pmt. IIRC you still 
only get the single video and audio specified in the tuning file even if 
the pat describes more eg. subtitles and audio description.
