Sorry, but you need to explain in more detail what you did. This sounds like some kind of packet replay and capture szenario. What setup was used, and how did you capture?

Thank you mr. jasper for replying

i am sorry for posting this simple silly question

actually in original file there were 719 MP2T packets,each 1358 bytes

and in output file each packet is of 188 bytes (1358/188 =7 ) that means 719 * 7 = 5033 packets

Enter the file where the mpeg stream should be saved.

according to the Lua code:

Enter the file where the mpeg stream should be saved.

So, it's the binary MPEG stream, contained in the frames.

I would need to have access to your capture file to be able to analyze what's going on. Is it possible to post the capture file somewhere (google drive, dropbox, etc.)?
