  I believe that vdr 1.3.34 fails to accept EPG
data if the NID field of channels.conf is zero.  For
me, scan gets a lot of NID 0's, so this is a big problem (in fact, I  
am more
interested in the EPG that the actual programs, for a project I am  
working on).

I believe the following patch allows vdr to match a channel even if  
it has
NID 0.  I am not sure if the corrected NID gets saved back to  
channels.conf
with this patch, as for me it doesn't matter.
     It allows GetByChannelID to match without a NID, and tries this  
in eit.c if
the channel match fails.

I am a bit new to vdr,so I hope posting this here is OK and it gets  
to the right person/people.



+  if (!channel) {
+     return;  // even with unknown NID, we didn't have it
+     }
    cSchedule *pSchedule = (cSchedule *)Schedules->GetSchedule 
(channelID);
    if (!pSchedule) {

What channels are those, where 'scan' (I assume you are referring to the
driver utility by that name) delivers a zero NID value?

Does VDR also detect them with NID=0?
