I haven't checked gVideo for that, but in Klaus VDR was a problem that
related to the new 0.6 DVB driver which is, that the recordings need to
start with the bytes "AV" otherwise, the driver assumes that there is a
non PES stream coming.

Check whether your recordings begin with the two charachters AV

Hello,

in the last few days I have started with DVB.

Thereby I encountered a bug in gVideo. All records
except the first (after boot?) won't play back.

I discovered, that they do black back, when I precede
them with a few starting bytes from the one working record.

(In unix words:
dd if=working_record of=head count=160 bs=1
cat head notworking_record > working_record2
)

Have others experienced the same? If so,
maybe the playback should "imagine" such
preceding bytes before every record,
so a record can be any random part of
a bigger record without taking care for
anything.
