Hi Jon,

The original sentence is hard to read, I had to go a few times before I think
I understood what it meant. Which might be different from your interpretation.

How about?:
"Besides several of such audio and video stream, it usually also contains data
streams with information about the programs [...]"

If this isn't worth it and it is just nitpicking, feel free to drop.

Thanks for taking the time to look into this,
Luis
