Heh, I see. ;)

My problem is that the GOPchopped segments have audio that is
unrecognizeable to mplex. The first segment is ok, but all the following
segments simply won't mutiplex together and I haven't found a way to fix
the audio so that it's palatable to mplex or tcmplex. I've tried all
different orders of doing the steps. Sigh.

I did get gop-fixup patched to work, but without fixing the audio
problem I can't remux the stream with DVD NAV placeholders so that I can
use the video.

One of my biggest peeves in the past year is how the mpgtx tool is
totally useless for specifying time ranges and nobody seems to
acknowledge it. I can give it a HH:MM:SS range and it's not even close,
many minutes off. Perhaps it can't handle VBR streams, but I haven't
even seem anybody else mention it.

It's frustrating to have an MPEG2 file and cutlist and be totally unable
to even cut the file properly with Linux tools. I have a dozen ways to
do it under Windows, and not even one on my OS of choice. :( I wish I
knew enough to write one.

Disclaimer: I might be drunk as I write this. heheheh.
