My channels.conf is littered with those! ;) Would be nice if each channel entry had a field for channel number instead, especially when they helpfully decide to move a channel! It's also the way "real" set-top boxes do it. I think "scan" can output the channel numbers to a vdr-readable channels.conf but I think that just puts in a :@1, :@2, :@3, etc. every other line. Just doesn't seem neat to me, especially as the channel numbers are broadcast. I did start looking at this a while back but never got very far: might have another go...
