[vdr] create a channel by SetId(int Nid, int Tid, int Sid, int Rid = 0)

[Patrick Fischer]

Now I can switch only be define Nid, Tid and Sid.
This is my provisional Version which only works if I make a channelsscan 
which takes the Nid, Tid and Sid.
Im not very happy with this solution but it works for me.

Maybe somebody make a better version.

This is my provisional Version:

bool ctuner::changeService(int originalNetworkId, int transportStreamId, 
int serviceId){
    char buffer[MAXPARSEBUFFER];
    if (getLineByIDs(originalNetworkId,transportStreamId,serviceId,buffer)){
        dsyslog("Can't find originalNetworkId=%d, transportStreamId=%d 
and serviceId=%d in 
Channels.conf",originalNetworkId,transportStreamId,serviceId);
        return false;
    }
    cChannel* channel = new cChannel();
    if (!channel->Parse(buffer)){
        dsyslog("can't parse channel from buffer");
        return false;       
    }
   
    cChannel *mChannel = 
Channels.GetByServiceID(channel->Source(),channel->Transponder(),channel->Sid());
    delete channel;
    if (!mChannel){
        //should never be reached
        esyslog("can't find channel from channels.conf in 
channelslist");   
        return false;
    }
   
    if (!cDevice::PrimaryDevice()->SwitchChannel(mChannel,true)){
        dsyslog("can't switch to channel");
        return false;   
    }

    return true;
}


bool getLineByIDs(int originalNetworkId, int transportStreamId, int 
serviceId, char* resultbuffer){
                      
    char *FileName = "/video/channels.conf";//TODO 
"AddDirectory(ConfigDirectory, "channels.conf");
    bool allowComments = false;
    if (FileName && access(FileName, F_OK) == 0) {
       isyslog("loading %s", FileName);
       FILE *f = fopen(FileName, "r");
       if (f) {
          char buffer[MAXPARSEBUFFER];
          while (fgets(buffer, sizeof(buffer), f) > 0) {
                if (allowComments) {
                   char *p = strchr(buffer, '#');
                   if (p)
                      *p = 0;
                   }
                stripspace(buffer);
                if (!isempty(buffer)) {
                     int tmp, sid, nid, tid;                   
                     int fields = sscanf(buffer, "%*[^:]:%d 
:%*[^:]:%*[^:] :%d :%*[^:]:%*[^:]:%d :%*[^:]:%d :%d :%d :%d ", &tmp, 
&tmp, &tmp, &sid, &nid, &tid, &tmp);
                     if (fields == 7 && originalNetworkId==nid && 
transportStreamId==tid && serviceId == sid){
                         memcpy(resultbuffer, buffer, MAXPARSEBUFFER);
                         fclose(f);
                         return true;
                     }
                   }
                }
          fclose(f);
          }
       else {
          LOG_ERROR_STR(FileName);
          return false;
          }
       }              
        return false;
}
