Muxing Tool

[geohei]

I have a demuxed MPEG-2 stream, which I would like to mux into one file.

Partial answers possible ... .

1. Question.
When I use mplex, I use the option "-f 8" (for DVD). Why is it required that an MPEG-2 stream needs to know if the muxed file is for DVD, VCD or SVCD, requires data like VBV and more?

2. Question(2).
When I use mplex, and make a PVAStrumento "Scan", I get the following error after I muxed using mplex:

ALERT> -71583 video frames missing at 00:47:42.904.
ALERT> Dropping GOP for sync.
      Re-syncing.
      Closing starting GOP.
ALERT> 71583 video frames missing
      This is probably due to a cut in the source.
ALERT> Dropping GOP for sync.
      Re-syncing.
      Closing starting GOP.
      Aiming for sync at 00:47:43.864
      Cutting audio.

When I use bbmpeg for muxing, the error doesn't show up.

- Any idea why this is?
- Is there any other muxing tool other than mplex or bbmpeg?
- Is there any tool which allows analysing an MPEG-2 stream in detail (timecodes, flags, VBV, ...)?

Thanks a lot!

... no answers so far ...

Let's formulate it differently.

Is there any MPEG-2 program stream muxing tool out there, apart from TMPGEnc, bbmpeg and mplex?

TIA
