It appears that I introduced a bug when I was working with the teletext patch, 
which generated invalid pts data (in comparison with the original ts), so it 
should not occur in normal operation. But if you still want a sample with 
very bad pts info, I could put in the bug again, and make a sample.

This new patch will aquire sync faster even on normal streams, won't it?
I'm sorry if you did unecessary work on behalf of my bugreport.

On my desktop (w/GeForce TI4200 & 6106) I tested with OpenGL, RTC, and the 
busy wait method, on my epia m10k I tested RTC and busy wait. Both is using 
audio timebase, and all methods performed more or less equally.
