I have a lot of MPEG-TS video files (H.264 video with AC3 or MP3 in a .TS container) captured from a DVB-S capture card.

When I play these videos it's much slower to seek in the video (ie. skip 30 seconds, etc) than with other files.

I'm not sure if the problem is the H.264 encoding (reference frame count?) or the MPEG-TS container, or if the MPEG-TS file contains sync errors, etc.

Does anybody have a good workflow for converting and repairing these files?
