mplex13818 is an ISO 13818 stream multiplexer for real-time usage that handles both program and transport streams and PES.

It is designed to run uninterruptedly on a streaming server that propagates a number of ISO 13818 broadcast streams, reorganizing the streams in real time. mplex13818 project includes an EN 300468 SI table generator.

Here are some key features of "mplex13818":
output is either a transport stream or a program stream
input streams may be program streams, paketized elementary streams (PES) and transport stream, in any combination
streams are kept in sync during multiplex, where possible
normal real time operation obeys stream timing, but untimed operation is available for discfile conversion
program information and stream compilation may be changed on the fly during operation
program map table manipulation, descriptor filter/injection
now includes an additional tool for EN 300468 SI table composition

Installation:

unpacking the tar archive and "make install" will place it in the /usr/local sub hierarchy.
no readme file available, but man pages: iso13818ts(1), iso13818ps(1), repeatts(1), en300468ts(1)
there are additional diagnostic tools included: showts, ts2pes, pes2es. these are provided by third party, so i cannot explain details about them. the latter two are said to produce a nice stream dump when given the option -v. you are invited to write a man page or similar for these. otherwise check the sources for explanations.
