 The line I gave is for VDR 1.7.0 native (multiproto plus) plus patch S H264 ..

 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

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?

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.
