Hi all,
I have noticed that some channels (at least Eurosport and Nickelodeon on CanalDigital, S1W) broadcast different languaghes on right/left channel. Eurosport for instance has two audio PID's where one is English/Danish and the other one is Swedish/Norwegian.
Is it possible to select channel through VDR audio menu but VDR doesnt remeber the selection so everytime i select Eurosport i have to select swedish manually. (and my daughter gets confused with mixed language on Nickelodeon...)
Is this the expected behaviour or have I overlooked something in the configuration??
Kind regards, Anders

HISTORY file of VDR: 2005-01-09: Version 1.3.18 ... - The "Left" and "Right" keys in the "Audio" menu can be used to switch between the left and right stereo channels in case there are different audio tracks in these channels (see MANUAL for details).

You may want to select your preferred "Audio languages" in the Setup/DVB menu.

To clarify:
After looking closer at the audio-menu:
On Eurosport there are two audio PID's "sve" which has swedish on the left channel and danish on the right and "nor" which has finnish on the left channel and norwegian on the right channel. I have chosen Swedish as my preferred languaghe and VDR correctly select the audio PID labeled as "sve". That PID has two langughes, and i have to select right or left channel in the VDR audio menu to avoid audio in swedish AND norwegian at the same time.
My problem is that VDR does not seem to save my choice which means that i have to go into the audio menu and select left channel everytime i want to see Eurosport. The same applies to Nickelodeon.

Whats your vdr version?
From 1.3.32 changelog:
- Changed the audio PID language codes to hold up to two 3 letter codes, separated by '+', to store separate languages broadcast in two channel audio mode.
Works fine for me at Eurosport from 1W (chooses finnish audio as it is preferred).

I am running 1.3.23 here, guess I have to upgrade then ....
I completely missed that changelog, sorry.
