That's fine -

I don't know why that happened, but if we can work out what's up with the others I'll be a very happy camper!

Thanks Ross,

I'm still having some trouble using the MPEG2TransportStreamIndexer on MPEG2-TS files we bring down off of our ASI satellite feeds.

The tool doesn't emit any errors, and finishes with a "Šdone", but a 0 byte "tsx" file is created.

I've put together a small representative sampling (6 files, 1 MB each) of the TS files that won't index.

These videos are clipped off the heads of several multi-GB HD files, so I realize that 1MB is very short -however VLC properly opens and displays the codec information, as does ffmpeg - so I'm hoping that you may be able to figure out why this occurs with such regularity.

Here are the clips:

OK, thanks for letting me know.  I'll take a look at these (I'm traveling right now, so it might take a few days).

Note, though, that VLC can't play your "wont7.ts" file at all.  (It does play the remaining files - "want2.ts" through "want6.ts" - OK.)  So, I won't be checking that file (because if a media player can't play the file, then it's not reasonable to expect our indexing software to work on it).
