Classic mplayer format channel lists are still supported (without
these improvements), and for other card types, only limited VDR
format channel list support is implemented (patches welcome).
+ For channels with dynamic PID switching or incomplete
+ ``channels.conf``, ``--dvbin-full-transponder`` or the magic PID
+ ``8192`` are recommended.
``--dvbin-timeout=<1-30>``
Maximum number of seconds to wait when trying to tune a frequency before
giving up (default: 30).
+``--dvbin-full-transponder=<yes|no>``
+ Apply no filters on program PIDs, only tune to frequency and pass full
+ transponder to demuxer. This is useful to record multiple programs
+ on a single transponder, or to work around issues in the ``channels.conf``.
+ It is also recommended to use this for channels which switch PIDs
+ on-the-fly, e.g. for regional news.
+
+ Default: ``no``
