-=== Introduction ===
+Desirable features:
-After some discussion on IRC regarding availability of a Linux utility to display MPEG-TS info from UDP / RTP streams, I have decided to have a go at writing something to do just this.
+* Input from TS/RTP/UDP or TS/UDP
+* Possible extension to use linux-dvb device
-I will hopefully be using libdvbpsi for a lot of the parsing duties.  I am aware of tools like dvbsnoop, but they don't quite meet the requirements.  I'm looking for something similar to TSReader Lite, without the licensing issues and win32 dependency.
+* PID list and bandwidths / %age - bargraph
+* SI table parsing (NIT, PMT, PAT, EIT, CAT, etc.)
-So the question is what features would people like to see?  So far I have:
+* I-frame gap
+* CRC errors
-* Ability to read MPEG-TS wrapped in both raw UDP, and RTP/UDP
+* I-frame decoding
-* Ability to use linux-dvb devices
+* Discontinuity indication
-* Display of a tree hierarchy with PAT / PMT / SID / PID information
+* Subtitle decoding
-* Display NIT table if it exists
+* EPG grid
-* Calculation of bandwidth of each PID, as well as percentage bandwidth used by each PID
+* PID selection and forwarding to VLC (via UDP stream?)
-Any wishes or ideas would be welcome at this stage.
-Gatty.
