I looked at your files and they are garbage. The TS that you recorded is 
missing *lots* of packets (hence "packets lost by demux" errors) and 
there are even malformed packets. In short it is not possible to read 
and decode these files and display picture or listen to audio.

Yes you are wasting time trying to get these files displayed. Focus 
first on getting a good capture on disk. For starters only use buffers 
in your program that are a multiple of 188 bytes, this will make sure 
there will be no truncated frames in the stream. You might still have 
"packets lsot by demux" errors if the capturing cannot run timely enough 
to capture all streaming packets.

I hope this helps. Good luck.
