Hello Today I'm wondering about the SetId from cChannels.h As I know, I can specify a channel only by NID, TID and SID I know vdr don't use the way, but is there an way to switch to a channel only by this values? I have tried this code: cChannel* channel = new cChannel(); channel->SetId(8468,12801,16406); cDevice::ActualDevice()->SwitchChannel(channel,true); If I execute this code, vdr will show me only the last still Pic of the old channel. The values are from my channels.conf created with w_scan Name <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#Name> Frequenz <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#Frequenz> Parameter <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#Parameter> Quelle <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#Quelle_-_Source> SRate <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#SRate_-_Symbolrate> VPID <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#VPID> APID <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#APID> TPID <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#TPID> CA <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#CA_-_Conditional_access> SID <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#SID> NID <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#NID> TID <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#TID> RID <http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Syntax_der_channels.conf#RID> RTL2:578000:I0C23D12M16B8T8G4Y0:T:27500:353:354:359:0:16406:8468:12801:0 If I don't find a better way, I will parse my channels.conf for the SID,NID and TID If I found the right line, then I can create a cChannel with cChannel-Parse(the found line); I don't like the alternative way. Can anybody tell me a better way? greetings Patrick
