Actually, there is a project called DVBgrab (dvbgrab.sf.net), which can
be used for such purpose.


As new versions of VLC support EPG decoding from MPEG TS streams, it
would be nice if getstream had an option to add EIT data to output
stream, but filtered so that only actual service's schedule EIT is
broadcasted (it would confuse VLC otherways).

As I know, only DVBlast from VideoLAN team supports this feature, but it
does not support as much features as getstream, like HTTP streaming or
SAP announcements.
