Conversation
No capture in this repository carries EIT, so the one PID whose handling is in question is also the one nothing exercises. make-eit-fixture.sh builds one from any clip using TSDuck alone, deriving the service triplet from the stream's own PAT and SDT so the EIT describes the service that is actually there, and anchoring the EPG to the stream's TDT where it has one. `tsp` replaces packets rather than creating them, so the table has to come out of existing stuffing: a capture keeps its exact mux rate, and a clip with no stuffing is padded to CBR first. Without a TDT the reference is a fixed date, which makes the output byte-reproducible for a given input. run.sh --with-eit injects it before the round-trip and reports which SI PIDs came back, which turns a property that had to be read out of SI_PIDS into something the harness prints.

WalkthroughAdds optional Mergeability Score: 🔵 Low · up to The fixture generator can continue after metadata parsing failures and substitute default service identifiers, allowing it to emit EIT that does not describe the input service and potentially make SI-routing tests misleading. This is limited to test tooling but warrants explicit owner awareness or correction before relying on generated fixtures. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

TSDuck tstables --json-output exit status incomplete tables PAT SDT documentation
💡 Result:
In TSDuck, the tstables command (and the tables plugin) is designed to output only complete, valid MPEG tables by default [1][2][3]. If a table—such as the EIT Schedule or specific PAT/SDT instances—is incomplete (i.e., missing one or more sections), TSDuck will wait for the missing sections to arrive before generating output [4][2]. If those sections never appear in the transport stream, the table remains incomplete, and no JSON or XML output is generated for it [2][3]. This behavior is expected for tables with sparse sections. To handle incomplete tables, you can use the following options: --pack-all-sections: This option forces TSDuck to treat each individual section as a complete table by modifying the section numbering [4][2][5]. It is commonly used to export sparse EIT sections into XML or JSON format [5][3]. --fill-eit: This option is specific to EITs and attempts to complete missing sections with empty events, allowing them to be processed as complete tables [4][6]. Regarding exit status, tstables generally returns EXIT_SUCCESS (0) if it completes its processing of the input stream successfully, and EXIT_FAILURE (1) if it encounters errors (such as file access issues or invalid command-line arguments) [7]. The absence of output for incomplete tables is considered normal operational behavior rather than a failure condition [4][2]. If you need to debug whether sections are being received, you can use the --all-sections option to output raw sections directly without waiting for them to form complete tables [1][4][2].

TSDuck eitinject EIT service_id transport_stream_id original_network_id invalid service metadata behavior
💡 Result:
In TSDuck, the eitinject plugin is specifically designed for dynamic EIT (Electronic Program Guide) generation [1][2]. When using eitinject, the plugin functions by extracting event data from input files (provided in XML, JSON, or binary formats) and building compliant DVB EIT sections on-the-fly based on the current transport stream time [3][1][4]. Regarding the behavior of service_id, transport_stream_id, and original_network_id, as well as general service metadata: 1. EIT Container Discarding: The eitinject plugin treats input EIT structures primarily as containers for event data [3][5][4]. When these input files are loaded, the plugin extracts the individual events and discards the surrounding EIT envelope [3][5]. 2. Metadata Handling: With the exception of the DVB triplets—specifically the original_network_id, transport_stream_id, and service_id—most structural metadata from the input files (such as actual/other, current/following, or table_id) is ignored [3][5]. The plugin relies on the extracted events and its own internal EIT generator to create compliant, output EIT sections [3][5][2]. 3. Accuracy Requirements: While the EIT envelope structure is discarded, the original_network_id and transport_stream_id must be accurate within the input data because the plugin uses these values to correctly classify and map events to the appropriate EIT table types (EIT Actual vs. EIT Other) in the output stream [5][6]. 4. Invalid/Malformed Metadata: If input metadata is missing or logically inconsistent (e.g., incorrect DVB triplets), the plugin may fail to associate the events with the correct services in the output stream, or it may fail to generate the expected output tables [5][6]. Because the plugin regenerates sections dynamically based on the current time and state, it does not simply "inject" the provided metadata; it uses the events to populate dynamically generated, compliant structures [1][4][2]. If your goal is to inject a consistent EPG, you should not attempt to use the generic inject plugin, as it is intended for static table injection and cannot handle the dynamic, sparse nature of EIT sections [1][7]. Always use eitinject to ensure proper EPG management [1][7].

tstables can complete without producing complete PAT or SDT JSON, and line 62 also suppresses command errors. Lines 94-97 then replace missing identifiers with 1. A supplied --service-id is not checked against the SDT service list. Require valid transport_stream_id, original_network_id, and a selected SDT service before generating EIT. Validate the generated EIT triplet instead of counting PID 0x0012 packets.

An EIT whose triplet does not match the SDT describes nothing, and a receiver is right to ignore it.tspreplaces packets rather than creating them, so the table has to come out of existing stuffing. A broadcast capture has plenty and keeps its exact mux rate (verified: 9,945,951 b/s before and after); the ffmpeg-generated clip has none, so it is padded to CBR first and the script says so.run.sh --with-eitinjects it before the round-trip and prints which SI PIDs came back.The census is a report, not a gate, since a table outside
SI_PIDSis dropped by design rather than by malfunction. Onmaintoday, with the generated clip:That makes the behaviour something the harness prints rather than something a reader has to derive from
SI_PIDS, and it gives whatever lands for #2800 a before/after that does not need a broadcast capture.Public API changes
