There is too little information to give an answer to this question.

I'll try anyway to give some pointers:
- TS stream could be in violation of the standard and your tool just
happens to match that.
- libdvbpsi 1.1.0 EIT parser could have a bug
- libdvbpsi 0.1.6 EIT parser could falsely detect mangled content making
you believe it detected more events

If you lose ~33 % percent of your stream, then you have a big problem. Fix
that first, then look at the EIT content.

Kind regards,
