Ah, now I see why you were interested in my patch. Let me hack around a few things (adding in the NIT Network Parsing, and your patch...and roll everything into 1.), and I'll post it here.
Wihtout a doubt, this stuff would be way better suited to go into the signal montior. I don't have a clue how to use threads though. I see some stuff in DVBSignalMonitor about the NIT..But not sure how to use it. -Matt On Sat, 21 Jan 2006 17:26:26 -0500, Buechler, Mark R <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've hacked together a patch myself which simply checks > kFlagWaitingForSignal and kFlagWaitingForSIParser and tells DVBChannel to > retune the card after MythTimer::elapse() occurs.
