Description

In the Finnish ttv/elisa dvb-c network all muxes except one have network id 0, the one exception having id 15. Mythtv-0.20 and mythtv-0.20-fixes only get eit data from the mux with netid 15 carrying Yle channels. This problem has been discussed on mythtv-users list but no fix has been presented before. The attached patch seems to fix the problem. Please review and test. It Worksforme(tm). Puh

Daniel,

can you comment on any effect this may have on pure mpeg streams?

Stuart,

Your latest patch (ticket2528-netid0-eit.diff) doesn't fix the situation at all. However, the previous patch from Antti, does fix the problem. This case is exactly the same as #2268 and the above mentioned patch fixes also my case completely.

2528_setupDTVSigmon_by_SIstandard_DVB.diff detects DVB transports no longer by a heuristic based on networkid and transportid but by the value of dtv_multiplex.sistandard.

This fixes EIT and other DVB features on multiplexes with the reserved network id or transport id 0.

I can't test since I have only multiplexes with network id > 0. So please test and give feedback.

Janne's patch is in the direction we were going, but we need a dbcheck.cpp update to existing transports with invalid DVB NID/SID or ATSC major/minor to use the "mpeg" sistandard since there used to be many ways we inserted an improper sistandard for a channel. Refs #2584.

2528_setupDTVSigmon_by_SIstandard_DVB_v2.diff changes the sistandard of dvb multiplexes with networkid 0 or NULL to mpeg.

If it was a valid dvb multiplex using the reserved value 0 as networkid a rescan of that transport is necessary. The rescan unfortunately doesn't update the old multiplex but inserts a new dvb multiplex. The channels are updated to the new multiplex.
