The error means that the MPEG-TS (transport stream) misses several TS
packets of 188 bytes from the stream. In that case libdvbpsi will flag
an "TS discontinuity error".

libdvbpsi is only usefull with MPEG-TS streams and does not work with
.avi, .flv or .wmv. Therefor this mailinglist is not the right one for
your issue.

Please send your issue to vlc-devel at videolan.org and attach a link to
the log file from one of your failed tests (for instance use
vlc.pastebin.com). And do not forget to mention which vlc version and
which operating system version you are using.

Kind regards,
