[mythtv-users] OT : Anyone know a utility to scan an MPEG-2 file for errors?

I keep getting these "first frame is no keyframe" errors during
playback. It has something to do with FF an REW. At first I thought
moving to 0.19 had fixed it, but now it's popping up again.
In the interest of tracking the true problem down, I'm trying to start
at the very base. I did a raw video capture from /dev/video0 (I have a
PVR-250) for about 2 hours. I'd like to run some sort of scanner on it
to analyze if there are any problems. If so, I would guess that my
PVR-250 is going bad and I should start looking for a replacement. This
would not be too much of a surprise, since for about a year I had it
running in a machine that was way out of spec heat-wise, and the PVR was
routinely hot enough to burn me if I touched it.
So, anyone know of any MPEG-2 scanning utilities? I tried playing it in
mplayer, and it seemed like it was reporting some problems, but I
couldn't really understand the output. Maybe I should post some of it here.
Thanks,
Micah
