Especially look into cLineGame and see how it implements the Show() function. See also the chapter on "User interaction" in PLUGINS.html. +- Added three new fields to the lines in 'channels.conf': NID, TID and RID. NID and + TID are the Network and Transport Stream IDs, respectively. RID is an additional ID + that can be used to tell apart channels that would otherwise be indistinguishable. + This is typically the case with radio channels, which may have the same NID, TID + and SID, but different "radio IDs". This new field is therefore called RID ("radio + ID"). Currently NID and TID are not yet used by VDR and should always be 0. The + RID is actually used when building the "unique channel ID", so if you have channels + in your 'channels.conf' file that cause error messages when loading, you can set + the RIDs of these channels to different values. + When reading an old 'channels.conf' these new fields will be automatically + initialized to 0 and once the file is written back to disk they will be appended + to the channel definitions. + Thanks to Régis Bossut for pointing out that with some providers the channels can + only be distinguished through the RID. +- The "unique channel ID" now contains an optional 5th part (the RID). See man vdr(5). |
