However MBAFF rips do play - though without decent deinterlacing.
MBAFF Live TV though? Terrible. Seldom plays at all.
(And I don't think you mean x264 Live TV unless you are in Norway or Iceland - which are the only places in Europe I know of that use the Open Source x264 encoder for Live TV encoding. The codec used for 1080i HD in Europe is H.264 aka AVC - x264 is just the name of one software encoder that generates H.264/AVC - and it's not widely used for Live TV encoding )
