Try this..

cat 00*.vdr|pes2ts2 0 0|ts2ps 0 0|vlcs

Where vlcs is:

#!/bin/sh

vlc -vvv /dev/stdin -I telnet --aspect-ratio 4:3 --sout
'#transcode{vcodec=DIV3,vb=512,acodec=mp3,ab=128,channels=2,width=544,height
=480,deinterlace}:std{access=mmsh,mux=asfh,url=:1234}'


pes2ts2 and ts2ps can be found in this source:
http://www.metzlerbros.org/dvb/libdvb-0.5.4.tar.gz

The Makefile seems to have a small mistake in it though, so before you do a
"make install" apply this patch:
