Old revisions usually do not fail here, only sometimes.
Anyway that's very probably the famous problem with initial timestamps;
I'll get to it eventually.

Yes it did work well until a few days ago!

The problem is: by eliminating the admittedly ugly "goto do_pcr" you
have effectively disabled detection of the pcr pid unless there is a
valid SDT.  And with pcr_pid==0 all seeking fails.

Enabling the "mpegtsraw" demuxer in allformats.{c,h} (should I send a
patch for that?) and specifying "-f mpegtsraw" does _not_ help,
because then we get the pcr_pid but don't have auto_guess on.

What I would suggest is for the auto_guess case to auto-detect the
pcr pid as well as new streams.  Patch appended, lightly tested.

Wolfram
