vlc alternative?

[Alex]

Hi,
I'm using vlc with my hdhomerun TV tuner, but vlc has a problem that hasn't
been fixed for a really long time. Does anyone have a recommendation for a
similar app I can use for streaming?

I'm really only otherwise familiar with mplayer, but I don't think it
supports streaming in this way where I can connect it to a socket like I
can with vlc.

btw, the vlc error involves messages like these:

[00007fb3a4001130] ts demux error: libdvbpsi error (PSI decoder): TS
discontinuity (received 10, expected 9) for PID 112

Thanks,
Alex
