This is excellent. I had wondered how the set top boxes were re-ordering channels into a more natural order. At the very least it would be excellent if scan would sort it's output by channel number
Thanks Ed W > > I'm wondering if the "scan" developers are considering incorporating automatic channel numbering (for applications such as VDR) in the near future for those services that support it? > > If so, I have attached a small patch (created against the CVS dvb-apps tree) to retrieve the channel numbers for the UK terrestrial "Freeview" service for use in VDR 1.2.xx. The channel numbers can be found in the NIT table as the user-defined descriptor 0x83 and each channel number has a corresponding Service ID which is included in the descriptor. My coding skills are not excellent, so please feel free to amend the code if necessary. > > Short example of VDR output: > > :@20 > f tn:825833:I0B8C34D0M16T2G32Y0:T:27500:301:302,304:0:0:25856:0:0:0 > :@21 > TMF:825833:I0B8C34D0M16T2G32Y0:T:27500:201:202,204:0:0:25728:0:0:0 > > Cheers, > > John > > > -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
