The problems with PS have been well covered, hence the removal. I'm
running KnoppMyth using a pair of Avermedia DVB-T 771's. Using TS fixed
a whole raft of problems for me, from glitching, loss of audio, problems
with FFW/RWD, etc... So I'm surprised you got it to do anything in PS...
As usual YMMV I guess...
