i still think the file should not be checked for uniqueness at all, or do i
miss some problem that might occur if u have to exakt same channels in ur
file??
i dont use it myself, but i guess it might be nice for people who eg want to
watch bundesliga and formel 1 on Premiere, as they use the same "Feed"
channels for that... i guess it would be nice for that if u had the
possibility to have Sport 1 and the Feed Channels once with the Formel 1
names and once with the Bundesliga names and of course have Sport 1 somewhere
with the real name!
at least until it is possible to use the reference services which r
broadcasted to control those channels on the dbox and other receivers!

okay... i guess that is up to u!! i just always tend to strongly structure
everything... but that should work too!!
