 I am trying to get ITV HD working on MythTV. The channel is meant to be
 exclusive to FreeSat and ITV don't want it to work with Sky HD boxes until
 they sort out a contract with them.

 In order to prevent it working they are supposedly advertising their
 stream as a h.222 stream when in fact it is h.264.

 I have managed to get MythTV to recognize the channel, which shows up as
 "10510", but playing back anything is not currently possible.

 Looking at the logs, it seems that MythTV is incorrectly detecting the
 video stream as MPEG-1 video, but it is detecting the audio stream
 correctly as A52. Here's an extract from the log


 {{{
 2008-05-22 03:52:39.357 AFD: Stream #0, has id 0x3401 codec id MPEG1VIDEO,
 type Video, bitrate 0 at 0x0x19bc630
 }}}

 There is a thread over at Digital Spy which is following the happenings
 with the channel here:

 Any help in getting this working would be appreciated.
