is there somewhere a patch that would remove the break when the broadcaster uses "dynamic pids" (such as YLE). Now, when a programme starts at YLE, they change the Audio PID number, leading to VDR re-tuning or something, that leads to a 1-2s break in the show. There is no change in frequency, so I don't see any reason why there is such a break.
As a quick fix just disable the pid updates ("Channel update: no/names only"). Yle is always using the same pid numbers although they're switching them on and off, so you can easily fix these numbers in your channel.conf.
Tried this, but it seems it loses the subtitling PIDs. Is there a way to get both - subtitling and non-breaking TV viewing?
It might be interesting to learn why they do this "PID cycling" in the first place. Have you ever tried contacting them and asking why they do such a stupid thing?
Different programmes have a different number of languages, so the number of active pids changes. Isn't that correct behaviour?
