dvb channels.conf parse

Actually smplayer uses '+' to allow two audio pids.
I just found at http://www.linuxtv.org/vdrwiki/index.ph ... nnels.conf
the rigth way to do it is using ','

relevant part of syntax:

VPID
Video PID (Program Identification).
0 for Radio channels
1 for encryted channels (pay tv)

If that channel uses a separate PCR PID this PCR PID follows the Video PID, separated by "+" (e.g. ...:164+17:...)

For analogue TV: mostly 301(ivtv > 0.1.9) or 160(ivtv <= 0.1.9, bttv)

APID
Audio PID. Either one or more numbers separated by a comma. Each value stands for a language or two-channel audio. If that channel has AC3 (Dolby Digital Sound), the Dolby PIDs follows the mpeg audio PIDs, both lists are separated by semicolon (e.g.:...:101,102;103,104:...).

For analogue TV: mostly 301(ivtv > 0.1.9) or 160(ivtv <= 0.1.9, bttv)

smplayer doesn't read the video or audio pids. It only reads channels.conf to get the channel names.

The video and audio pids are parsed by mplayer, so you should send your suggestion to the mplayer developers.
