Re: Video Disk Recorder version 0.63

Just a thought ...
It might be useful to add/allow additional information fields about the
channel
in channels.conf ( :radio/tv:language:genre:encrypted/free_to_air  for
example)
even if vdr does not use the info.
Would make it way easier to sort a file with a few hundred lines by
different criteria.
Many sat related web sites provide such cannel information too, so it
should not be
a problem to get the data...

btw. for all who have use for it: here's a dirty little shell script
that creates a channels.conf for vdr from the web.
(also available at http://home.pages.at/linux/vdrconf.sh )
