I'm using a (not yet published) small patch and a (also not yet published) plugin to keep track of channels: The patch keeps a time stamp whenever a channel announcement is seen, and the plugin tracks the first-seen and last-seen time of all channels persistently. If a channel was not seen for some time, the channel name gets marked, and the channel can easily be deleted manually later. If there's interest in this, I can publish these two.

Beware, though, that there are providers that don't advertise channels in the sdt even if the channels are currently broadcasting. In the actuator plugin I have an option to prefix a '+' to all channels in the current satellite, then you start a channel scan which will update all active channels (i.e removing the '+'). At the end of the scan you can tell it to delete all channels marked with '+'. It's clumsier but it's safer, since you can revise the channels that are going to be deleted before actually deleting them. Of course all of this wouldn't be necessary if all broadcasters respected the standards Bye -- Luca ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

[vdr] [patch] channels with same pids+channels update
Hi If it's interecting for anybody. This is next version of a patch for non unique channels pids. (for stupid providers :) ). Rid not used now, SID/NID/TID+Transponder only. I tested this patch on 80E Express AM2 KU band. In my channels.conf: Культура;Orion Express:11044:hC56:S80.0E:44948:301:401=rus:0:602:1:1:1:0 TV-NADYM;Service Provider:11190:HC34:S80.0E:3255:308 +8190:256=eng,257=eng:0:0:1:1:1:0 Russya+Tomsk;Russya+Tomsk:11463:VC34:S80.0E:3200:96 +100:97=rus,98=rus:0:2600:1:1:1:0 Yugoria Network:11478:HC34:S80.0E:4400:1110:1211=und,1213=und,1212=und,1214=und:0:0:1:1:1:0 GTRK KUZBASS;TandbergTV:11650:VC34:S80.0E:5700:308 +8190:256=eng,257=fra:0:0:1:1:1:0 Охота и Рыбалка;Orion Express:11044:hC56:S80.0E:44948:302:402=rus:0:602:2:1:1:0 Yugoria Audio:11478:HC34:S80.0E:4400:0:1215=und,1217=und:0:0:2:1:1:0 I think this is show how dvb standard use. And you can switch off "delete duplicate channels" in dvb settings menu, if you want. ( if you set "delete duplicate channels" to ON, vdr can works with incorrect pids too). And other feature, this is deleting absent channels. If provider was deleted channels, you need delete it from channels.conf manually. After this patch, vdr auto deleting channels, which not present on transponder in sdt. Need select "delete absent channels" in dvb settings menu, but if you selected channels update or transponder update.

Re: [vdr] [patch] channels with same pids
Trying working with NA sats. At least in Europe you have standards. Here the only standard is that there is no standard. For example, on 97w after using a custome scanner, if I allow VDR to auto update channel names, then surf through the channels with a fresh conf, some channels dissapear, others get renamed to wrong names, etc.. Using yaepg while fliping through I can see some channels get shuffled and renamed. - Original Message - From: "Klaus Schmidinger" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Sunday, February 24, 2008 7:00 AM Subject: Re: [vdr] [patch] channels with same pids > On 02/24/08 12:35, Igor wrote: > >> Have you ever tried complaining to those providers, telling them about > >> their non-standard behavior? > > > > I have tried.

Re: [vdr] [patch] channels with same pids
I think, may be not need use rid, but add new parameter for channel identify, such as transponder example, or add some variants of identify and select it in settings... Nid/Tid/Sid or Transponder/Channel Name or Transponder/Sid/Tid... Because wanted use "transponder update" and don't want edit channel.conf manually...

Does this mean that the dreambox doesn't identify channels using NID/TID/SID? VDR itself doesn't use the RID, and I don't like starting to use it just to iron out the inability of some providers to adhere to the standard. I'd rather like to get rid of the RID altogether.

Re: [vdr] [patch] channels with same pids
Hi
1. cChannel::PluginParam() need for iptv plugin.
sorry, i was attached bad version for native vdr.
See attach for this message.
2. You right of cause, the triplet SID/NID/TID is supposed to be unique
within one satellite, but in really we have incorrect pid tables on many
satellites, and in local iptv networks. Example, see
http://www.lyngsat.com/eam2.html, some channels have equal pids:
11650V, 11190H, and 11044H too.
This is fault of sat providers, but we have it as is. And be a fine, if
vdr can works correct with such channels, without editing channel.conf
manually.

Hi. Some satellites have many channels with same sid, nid, tid on different transponders.
