The ServiceID is head->table_id, so this field can be added to the PMTObeject if
the CAM needs it.. I had always planned on knowing what ServiceID the PMT was
associated with, but putting it in there is not a big deal if its necessary..

I think this may be the field I was talking about above.. At some point I need
to spend some time withe DVB/ATSC/MPEGTS specs and ensure fields are named
appropriatly.. I had started doing that, but I got sloppy at some point.. This
obviously isn't imperative to the patch working, but would make patches much
easier by other people..

Not a fan of that :)
