it's not possible, and in addition interleaved-pes doesn't even have any 
reason
to exist: it's a castrated PS without the pack header, so you lose the SCR.
Vdr's developers should have invented a way to save the a real PS, or even
better the TS that comes out of DVB cards, rather than giving life to 
that senseless mess
that no software can manipulate
