Thanks for the replies, I will be traveling now, but I will test those
once coming back. I will then report my findings.

 an impression that plug-in is not actively maintained?

 So fat I have tested that I can scan and look the channels fine
 with the Kaffeine and WinTV-HVR-950Q, but in the long run I would
 be more interested on running the VDR in normal way on background
 server.

ATSC is supported in the Core VDR.
Iam kontakted the Maintainer Alex Lasnier a lot of month ago for an
update for the
vdr-plugin-atscepg
This plugin is definitely dead on upstream since 2010 and is not
supported by the Maintainer anymore.
Anyway...
The maintainer has give me access to his privat git for some local
fixes by him self.
I dont remeber for this link.
You can download the latest version atscepg-0.3.0 from fepg.org
and you need an aditional patch from my dev webspace to get the latest
fixes from him.

https://dev.gentoo.org/~hd_brummy/distfiles/atscepg-0.3.0_vdr-1.7.13.tbz

also you have to disable -std=c++11 support on latest gcc versions to
fix c++11 issues on compiletime.

I have this tested only for compile as i dont have access to atsc conten
t.
