Until I have completely read ISO-13818 I believe everything ;-)

For me the practical consequences are more important:

[1]
There is no quick and clean[tm] fix for PCR != video pid.
(Well, I was aware of that when I patched the driver.)

I haven't looked deeper into that but I think Andreas' Auto-PID patch 
might be modified to set the PCR pid. The PCR pid can be extracted from 
the PMT. This might help those who have still A/V sync problems.

[2]
Changing the recording format is not desirable, as we we don't want to 
lose our old recordings. If I understood that thread correcty, PCR ist 
*required* for live-view and not really necessary for recording/replay.
Otherwise the av7110 would not be able to play current recordings...
