The PIDs must be set correctly _before_ a broadcast starts! Of course you could change cChannel::SetPids() so that it doesn't set the CHANNELMOD_PIDS flag in case only the language codes are changed. However, this won't help in case of a change in PIDs during a broadcast, but then again this is a sign of bad broadcaster quality, and that they don't care about their viewers. Klaus
