This is the sort of feature which would be ideal as a plugin, i.e. only those who are interested need to compile and use it. As to whether it is possible to obtain the relevant LCN info from the DVB stream is possible from a plugin or not (I'd have thought a patch would be needed for this but haven't looked yet), or whether it is possible to renumber channels from a plugin.
It is possible to capture the LCN from a plugin (it's in the NIT as descriptor id 0x83), though a patch to libsi would be needed to decode the descriptor in the standard way used elsewhere in VDR.
