Of course it's a huge bulk of data, we need something in common for a
reference. Perhaps we can sync our clocks with ntp servers to get them in 
the one second precision, define the time of the reception and sample 20 
seconds of the same TS, you capture and analyze raw TS and I will analyze 
it with ethereal and send you a small binary file of several KB with the 
missing packet inside, missing data replaced with 00-bytes

Provided the stream has neighbouring data of sufficient uniqueness
(a compressed data e.g.), You can binary search neighbouring data in the 
TS and exactly locate in TS place of the missing data

That's right, I have rewritten the section code very cleanly and obvios,
but now I'm going to boot the test disk... wish me luck and save me from
oops

They could, because at half bandwidth something must go back-to-back
so it has to be sent with packing/optimization
