I've tried this now, but not very successfully. The live-tv has still a
gap, and the syslog gap is there too. In the recording, there is no gap
(or a very short gap), but a bit of the stream is clearly missing. I
didn't try with the timeout set to 0, though.
Then, as Klaus suggested, I started to play with cChannels::SetPids(),
and removed the ALang and DLang comparisons from the "modified"
definition, i.e.,
modified = IntArraysDiffer(apids, Apids) ||
IntArraysDiffer(dpids,Dpids);
This works fine, at least for the few tests I did. For programs with
multiple languages (e.g., Euronews, some sports programs), and after
such programs, the pid modify still stands, and a gap appears.
Now, the question is: is there any harm in making it this way? And what
would happen to multi-language program recordings, if the test was
removed completely? I also have no idea what the dpid stands for...
