Didn't test the APID-Feature, but recording and playback with the new VDR 
0.82 works just great, if only channel switching would be more stable ... 
but great work Klaus!

I agree with you, having an additional scanner with auto-detecting the 
various APIDs would be nice, just like in DTV

>- are AC3 Streams like normal additional audio Streams

Yes..., but there got to be an extra flag since various DVB-receiver fw 
detect correctly available DD-Streams.

Yes, when no AC3-Data is available DD2.0 is broadcasted, since the stream is 
mentioned as DD (not DD5.1 or AC3) this is the normal behaviour

Same as recording any audio stream...

Bye, reiner
