Hi everybody.
I wonder, if <event id> (according to vdr.5) must be uniq among *all* events known to vdr or only among the events of the current channel?
Is it valid to have a <event id> of 4711 for "ard" and a <event id> of 4711 for "zdf"? Or will these both events clash?
regards, Friedhelm.

According to ETSI EN 300 468 the event_id is "uniquely allocated within a service definition", which I think means that the combination of service_id and event_id is unique. Of course they cannot be globally unique for all time as they are both 16-bit fields, so I presume that there should simply be no re-use within the time interval covered by the EPG.
