What makes you think it's fdsrc's fault then? (You might well be right,
but it could be a number of other things as well)

First test: does ... ! tsdemux ! fakesink dump=true  work?

If yes, try with program-number=4164

If yes, it's not fdsrc; try just video branch and just audio branch

My guess would be that you're missing an mpegaudioparse element before
the 'mad' decoder, which was not required in 0.10 but is in 1.x.

Cheers
