Ugh, ok.  I understand the case you're talking about now.  Thanks for
clarifying.

This is actually what I assumed, but I thought you were referring to
the broken behavior found in some of the LinuxTV command line tools
which allow you to save the TS but they don't include the PAT in the
list of filtered PIDs.

Now that I understand what you're trying to do, the approach you've
proposed makes sense.  I withdrawal any objections.
