This would be really a clean approach, but I don't think, that you will
get inconsistency as long as the channels get referenced by their ID.
Moving a channel, that is just edited should work...Or do I miss
something? I have to check how vdr references channels...

Isn't vdr taking care of that?
from channels.c:
bool cChannel::SetSatTransponderData(int Source, int Frequency, char
Polarization, int Srate, int CoderateH)
{
// Workarounds for broadcaster stupidity:
// Some providers broadcast the transponder frequency of their
channels with two different
// values (like 12551 and 12552), so we need to allow for a little
tolerance here
if (abs(frequency - Frequency) <= 1)
Frequency = frequency;
// Sometimes the transponder frequency is set to 0, which is just wrong
if (Frequency == 0)
return false;
I'd like filtering for freq for the following reasons:
- Once a month I clean my channels.conf, removing all dead channels. I
put a "DEAD -" in front of all channelnames and switch to every
transponder for about 10 sec. with "update names" enabled. There are
some channels that are still not "dead", but don't get their names
updated. So I delete these channels, switch to a channel on the same
transponder and let this channel be readded. Having the channels ordered
by freq makes this easy...
- I have only 1 card. If channels are ordered by freq, I can see with
channels can be recorded at simultaniously.

Great :)
