I played around with the files, but I couldn't display either of

nothing happens. After a driver reload I get a blank screen again
(using latest cvs driver with still frame patch).
Still frames from inside VDR are working.
Strange...

Did you ever tried to remove the deleted packets in
StripAudioPakets() ?
