Prior to version 0.5.X, Me TV only used the video and audio PID in the channels.conf however this information is available automatically from the DVB/MPEG 2 stream. The auto-pid blueprint specifically refers to the ability for Me TV to read all the PIDs automatically from the stream including subtitles, AC3, audio, video and teletext.
This is important because TV stations often change PIDs throughout the day in Australia and they need to be detected on-the-fly. Also, TV networks sometimes permanently switch PIDs. Without the auto-pid feature, subtitles would not be possible. Thanks for your great work. I'm glad that you're taking an interest in the project. Please feel free to ask these questions any time you like. -- subtitles broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195185 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Me TV Development, which is subscribed to Me TV.
