Have you actually seen these version numbers change that quickly? If the VersionChanges so does the CRC, unless you mean do a CRC on the payload only.. > Why have MythTV fail whenever the broadcaster reboots their equipment, > when you don't have to? The only time it would fail is is they: - rebooted their equipment kept the same VCT version - changed the payload This also would break all Set Top Boxes out there as well.. I also made a follow up post that was much clearer.. Sorry for shooting from the hip before.. _______________________________________________ mythtv-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev
