Thanks

    Short answer: no.

    Some user inhere have had success with Popcorn Hour as a "client" but this is just reading a list of streams and picking one from a simple interface.

    An option would be to build your own PC-client from cheap and/or low-power hardware. Think Eebox, or the ION platform which is supposed to do FullHD (1080p) but may have problems with 1080i (it has an Nvidia 9400 onboard, deinterlacing 1080i would most likely max it out).

Why should it matter if the export file is missing some values? I would expect the import process to...

    Thanks guys. Ok, spent the (whole) weekend on this lol. First; TVHeadend/Kodi.... Nah. Given up on that - 'non-tech'; its horrible. 'Tech' - a few reasons but mostly that it is buggy.

    To other people reading about this 'issue', Doskabouter provided me with a fix/patch. It is a modified version of tswriter.ax which solved the problem with dolby digital plus audio. I want to thank Doskabouter for all his time and energy he put into resolving this!!
