Should be something like that :

void setDemux(int fd,uint16_t pid, int type)
{
 struct dmx_pes_filter_params pesFilterParams;

 pesFilterParams.pid     = pid;
 pesFilterParams.input   = DMX_IN_DVR;
 pesFilterParams.output  = DMX_OUT_DECODER;
 if (type==1) pesFilterParams.pes_type = DMX_PES_VIDEO;
 if (type==2) pesFilterParams.pes_type = DMX_PES_AUDIO;
 pesFilterParams.flags   = DMX_IMMEDIATE_START;

  ioctl(fd, DMX_SET_PES_FILTER, &pesFilterParams)
}

void main()
{
 ...........
 ...........
 int fdDvr = open("/dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0",O_WRONLY)
 int fdv = open("/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0",O_RDWR)
 setDemux( fdv, vpid, 1);
 int fda = open("/dev/ost/demux",O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK)
 setDemux( fda, apid, 2);

 while(1) {
  dataLen = read( fd_file, buf, len );
  int n=0;
  while( n<dataLen) n+= write(fdDvr,buf+n, dataLen-n);
 }
}
