I should stress again that the file produced by PVAstrumento does NOT run
smoothly with linux DVB 0.8.2! (too much video/audio drop-outs)
 The remuxing done by PVAstrumento does not solve our problem. I think the
special hardware (DVB-S card) works best with the stream produced by
itself - or a special remuxed mpg that fits best to the timings required
by the cards hardware. (the question is - what timings/packet sizes/packet
orders are best for the DVB-S playback?) 
 To make the *.vdr streams working with other (windows) players
PVAstrumento works good - but this is another issue.
