If you prefer, I'll drop the "raw" qualifier..  It surely has no
meaning in standardese.

Non-raw IMO would be a stream which could be processed by mpegts.c
with ts->mpeg2ts_raw==0 and ts->auto_guess==0.  Unfortunately, I have
a hard time getting those out of Linux DVB -- more often than not the
SDT and/or PAT are incomplete or missing (for sure when unmodified
[tsc]zap from Linux dvbutils is used).

Are you sure?  At least it is used for start_time and bit_rate..
