[vlc-devel] [RFC] stream quality indicator on qt4

[jean-paul.saman at planet.nl]

The ts demuxer doesn't set BLOCK_FLAG_DISCONTINUITY but flags BLOCK_FLAG_CORRUPTED instead (modules/demux/ts.c line: 1993) to indicate corrupted data. Even this won't tell you how much exactly is lost. It only tells you how many times the demux noticed it.

What if you just loose packets? There is BLOCK_FLAG_DISCONTINUITY, however it 
won't tell you how many packets were lost.
