Would it be possible/easy to patch vdr to filter out such errors? What is the right function to look at?
Take a look at StripControlCharacters() or cEvent::FixEpgBugs() in epg.c.
It seems, that these functions only take care of the title and the description, but not the channel name.
Sorry, I missed that.
Finally, I've patched vdr like this:

fprintf(f, "%sC %s %s\n", Prefix, *channel->GetChannelID().ToString(), channel->Name());
fprintf(f, "%sC %s %s\n", Prefix, *channel->GetChannelID().ToString(),StripFunny8bitCharacters(channel->Name()));--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
It seems to work. Would it be possible to integrate this patch into vdr?
Well, first we should investigate why this isn’t set correctly in libsi/si.c. That’s the place where such fixes should actually be done. I’ll look into this once I have my VDR development environment up and running at my new place…
