No, I'm actually talking about DMX_SET_PES_FILTER filter:

struct dmx_pes_filter_params
{
__u16 pid;
enum dmx_input input;
enum dmx_output output;
enum dmx_ts_pes pes_type;
__u32 flags;
};

it explicitly allows setting both input and output, per PES filter.

Well, nobody implemented it (at least upstream).
