Hello
recently i already reported about a wiered problem
VDR generates 2 channels.conf entries for every DVB-T channel.
Example:
VOX;RTL World:666000:I0C23D0M16B8T8G8Y0:T:27500:545:546=deu:551:0:16418:8468:8706:0 VOX;RTL World:666000:I0C23D0M16B8T8G8Y0:T:27500:0:0:0:0:16418:8468:2818:0
I would not care about it, but i get the EPG infos only on the second entry. But there is no video.
I had these problems here in the Ruhrgebiet/Düsseldorf region when the frequency layout was changed in April. Somehow VDR did not get the changes right, don't know if that was possible at all. Solution was to replace channels.conf with the new one from VDR wiki.
Why does EGP get not infos at the first entry, which looks much less broken that the second?
The second line has no audio/video PIDs, so no audio/video reception. The two lines have different service IDs - so they refer to different services. The EIT table contains a field service_id, and VDR has to associate the EPG info from that table to a channel with this service ID. If the EIT for VOX refers to the service ID 2818, only the channels for the second line will have EPG. The PIDs are set from data in the PMT table.
Any usefull step to narrow the problem?
If the pragmatical solution (new channels.conf) does not work, you might want to analyze the relevant SI information: Install dvbsnoop. For command line options, read their examples list. Retrieve the PAT at PID 0x00. Retrieve the PMT for VOX at the PID given by the PAT. Read the EITs at PID 0x12 and find the one for VOX. Look at the service ID it refers to.
