Comment:

 Cizek, it appears the signal is very dirty. My guess is that some invalid
 packets are getting through and being parsed, causing us to read
 uninitialized data. The pes allocator is hiding this from valgrind. Please
 apply the attached patch and then run the recorder under valgrind. You
 probably only need to record one stream, the recorder shouldn't crash
 under valgrind, but it should report any invalid reads.
