[Live-devel] TransportStreamFramer latency?

Could you lend me an hand figuring out how to do this? Do you use
feedback from the STB? In that case, how? I cannot see any function in
the stb that gives that kind of feedback.
I believe the problem is because MPEG2TransportStreamFramer calculates
the average between packet for the last PCR to PCR period, and applies
this on the following PCR period. It seems to me also, that PCR comes
as often as DTS, so using DTS would not help much. I figure using PTS
would be a BAD idea :-)
