[.cmd-header]
Decapsulate TS packets from a PID produced by the encap plugin

This plugin is the counterpart of the `encap` plugin.
It decapsulates the original TS packets from a "tunnel PID" which was created by `encap`.
See the documentation of the `encap` plugin for more details.

The decapsulated packets replace the tunnel PID.
Because of the encapsulation overhead, the total volume of decapsulated packets is slightly smaller
(approximately 2%) than the encapsulation PID.
The packets in excess are replaced by null packets after decapsulation.
