Doh!  I'm not sure.  You're going to have to dig into the packets to 
figure out why myth doesn't like them.  My log looks something like this 
where yours ends

The difference being mine gets Seen(PAT) and then March(PAT).  Also you 
see the stream detector finding Video and Audio stream identifiers in 
their respective PIDs.  Maybe check with dvbsnoop to see if it can 
detect the stream types.  Run dvbsnoop -s ts -if XXXX | grep PES-stream
