The FILE protocol was meant only for development phase. It has buffering 
problems and you'll have to tweak the buffer size to avoid buffer under- 
and overflows.

The "S0P2" should be "S0P1". Only 0 or 1 are defined, but any non-zero 
value will be handled like 1 at the moment.

These are not originating from iptv plugin nor vanilla vdr, but maybe 
from an output device plugin (xine/xineliboutput/softdevice) you're 
using.

You've activated the pid scanner and it doesn't handle multiple 
video/audio pids, but detects always only the first one.

The video and audio pids are the same for all of these. If you're using 
the example iptvstream.sh script as a template, you should enable the 
pid scanner for these or manually correct the pids: video pid is 
parameter plus one and audio pid is parameter plus two:

NZ Govt TV:2:IPTV|S0P1|EXT|iptvstream.sh|2:P:0:3:4:0:0:1:0:0:0
