What went wrong with ffmpeg?

ffmpeg -i stream.ts -c:v copy -c:a copy out.mp4

If you find a sample that does not keep audio sync, the ffmpeg
developers would want to see it. Bear in mind that you cannot fix
audio sync issues without re-encoding the audio, eg:

ffmpeg -i stream.ts -c:v copy -c:a libfaac -filter:a asyncts out.mp4
