Hi.
For certain situations, it'd be great to exclude some channels from the automatic channel update. For example, when one has entered a channel manually which broadcasts wrong channel informations. With the next channel update, all is overwritten. So one has to either completely disable the automatic updates or live without the channel for the time being.
I had just a quick look over the vdr source and figured it wouldn't be too hard to come up with a patch to support something like this I guess. So I wanted to ask if this new feature would be considered ok for inclusion into vdr-1.7.x or if there are reasons against it? Otherwise I would put it on my todo list and get to it when I get some time... if no one else does it in the meantime that is. :-)
I deal with this type of problem by having two copies of the channel, with one with rid=1. The one with rid=0 will be automatically updated to incorrect values, while the one with rid=1 will not be updated, so it can be tuned as needed.
