I'm afraid I don't see how this case can be handled correctly.

Maybe somebody else has an idea?

One approach might be to ignore frequencies for DVB-T channels update
during NIT parsing (in France only?).

From my experiences with DVB-T SetTopBoxes using the NIT for
new channel-discovery is rarely done. No customer of my ex-employer was
using it - scanning was entirely based on continuous frequency-band
scanning with a spare demod.

That would be my idea. But I don't know whether this can be easily
applied to VDR.

Sorry, of course it has to be "break" instead of "continue":
