It's really simple if you use mkv instead of avi.

mplayer -dumpfile stream.264 -dumpvideo source.ts
mplayer -dumpfile stream.ac3 -dumpaudio source.ts (possibly with -aid X 
for a specific audio stream)

then use mkvmerge (cli) or mmg (gui); specify the correct framerate for 
the .264 stream and add the audio and you're done.
