I believe this is in the documentation in SVN.

Except for the 'running at all times' part, that sounds like what the signal monitor does. It sounds like simply using the NDT and SDT tables like we use the ATSC MGT and VCT tables would solve the problem you have described in the ticket. -- Daniel _______________________________________________ mythtv-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev EMAIL DISCLAIMER Please Note: The information contained in this message may be privileged and confidential, protected from disclosure, and/or intended only for the use of the individual or entity named above.
