OK, that seems to be what happened. I just about get sound and picture,
but not usable, because nothing but libxine recognises the stream and it
will only use one CPU core regardless of the ffmpeg_thread_count
setting. Perhaps it uses libx264 directly?

The line I gave is for VDR 1.7.0 native (multiproto plus) plus patch S H264 ..
and no more addons

If you have no images, check if VDR did not update the channel automatically and
put zero on VPID .. If the option setup/dvb card/ update channels is ON or
"update PID" or "update name" etc , set it to off and reset channel to VPID 3401
and PPID to 3401 too

ITV HD broadcast with a special video PID and VDR is not able to catch it so
jerk setup every time .. there is no update for this channel from a long time
ITV broadcast a "service not available" when there is nothing to watch, so you
can setup easyly your vdr

I'm using VDR 1.6.0. Is there a way of modifying one of these entries
for 1.6.0? I tried the one that [EMAIL PROTECTED] gave me:

Itv hd;BSkyB:11426:hC23M2O0S0:S28.2E:27500:3401:0;3402=eng:0:0:10510:0:0:0

With that VDR starts, but there is no picture on ITV HD (there was sound
earlier, but now that's gone too, perhaps because there's currently a
news update on ITV1). There is a new error message in syslog:

ERROR: invalid value for parameter 'M'.

which version of vdr do you use ? O - it's new parameter for channels.conf 
implemented in recent vdr version.

There's something wrong with that line:

VDR works fine with ITV HD since day 1 of broadcast - just put this in
your channels.conf: -

ITV HD;BSkyB:11428:hO0S0:S28.2E:27500:3401:0;3402:0:0:54207:0:0:0

It seems very unlikely. Red Button services merely act as a GUI frontend
to the raw streams.. e.g. the 'News Multiscreen' support on Freeview was
like for ages. There was a  MPEG2 stream on one of the BBC's muxes which
looked like this
 

|  |
|      |
| ###      |
| ###      |
| ###  |
| ###      |
| ###      |
|      |
|  |
---

Everything was black except for the # areas..

The BBC showed two News24 reels on the right, and BBC Parliament on the
left. If you had the correct Vid and Aud PIDs you could see this raw
feed. the 'Red Button' stuff just showed graphics to cover up the part
you shouldn't have been able to see :)

In short, no. Hidden PIDs can be easily found by analysing the bitrates
of each PID in a transport stream.
