 Is there a special reason, why the mpegts demuxer does not give a warning,
 when the PES header start code is missing? Instead it just skips the
 invalid TS packet payload. The code comment says, it assumes the data to
 be a "table". I never heard about "tables" in a PES stream though.

 I think ffmpeg should at least give a warning message or even set the
 AV_PKT_FLAG_CORRUPT flag, when it skips that data without interpreting it
 at all.
