Thanks for your help.

What I really want to do is not test the quality of decoder and encoder,
but test the quality with respect to the network link. That is, I want to
change the network link characteristics and stream the same mpeg2 and check
its quality w.r.t the original.
libmpeg2 and mpeg2dec essentially decodes a file on the same machine. It
does not render and decode the stream from the network.
Is there a way with videolan, that I can save the streamed file from the
network in encoded / decoded (raw) form ?

Thanks again..
