Well, I think it is difficult for a TV Station to reset it for every movie, 
should it be resetted for every commercial ;-)? Their is also no technical 
need for it, and it might confuse decoders (well, it probably won't...) I 
think PTSs  in DVB broadcasts should provide a common scale for Audio- Video- 
and Subtitle- Streams, that can be used to synchronize them during playback. 
So it is just a clock that goes round and round. Every decoder is expected to 
handle overflows.

BTW: I do not think the DVB specifications were designed with the goal of 
making capturing/archiving/converting easy ;-)

Cheers

Peter
