I am still watching this discussion a little bit before deciding ...

This changes nothing about the quality of the TS.
I can only take the ES/PES streams from the video and audio buffers
and convert them back to a TS in the driver. As long as I can get 
the complete streams (which is not a problem right now) buffer size
won't change anything.

The question is only if I give the video buffer its memory back to
better handle extreme streams.
I also check the playback with original TSs from a budget card and
there are the same problems with audio underflows if the video buffer
is too small.
