Thanks for explaining.
channel marked as FTA but can't be displayed:
NHK WORLD-JAPAN (eng);Digital Free:546000:C0M256:C:6900:2931=2:2932=eng@3:0:0:53120:61441:10004:0
This is MPEG video (2931=2).
Strange, it can't be played. VDR doesn't output anything with loglevel 3 when I switch to this channel.
Kodi log says:

could this be an issue with VNSI?
Things to test:
- Can your output device play MPEG video? Some devices (like the Raspberry Pi, for instance) require a separate
license for that.
It should be. I can playing MPEG container videos with kodi. I'm running kodi on gentoo with system ffmpeg libraries.
- Do you receive any data from "NHK WORLD-JAPAN"?
The EPG works.
Check the log entries for "buffer stats" when switching to that channel, remaining on it for a while, and then switching to a different channel.
- If you record "NHK WORLD-JAPAN", does it produce a non-empty file?
I can't tune that channel so no recording. And no log output.
I will try with another frontend/svdrpsend later.
