Highly unlikely, Olivier, that there will be greater problems -- funny, I
thought there were none -- with sensitivity due to codecs. Transport
streams is transport streams. Either you get the transport stream, or you
don't.
Codecs are one (or more, if you count adaptation headers as a layer) above
(or below, if you prefer) the transport stream.
In other words, if you got a signal before, you are as likely to gete the
signal later.
