this happens because with 8192 you grab (and have demux_ts probe for) 
the whole multiplex of the transponder;
this means that ts_detect_streams will find more pids than usual, will 
know which pid carries what, but
will need an even larger -tsprobe to know that the needed pids are 
really present.
