[vdr] VDR 1.1.13 ignores DVB-T parameters?



Hullo again.. the twiddling continues....

After much fiddling about with my setup (Nova-t and Dxr3 for those who 
have just joined us ;) I've discovered the following using vdr 1.1.13 
and the CVS DVB drivers as of 3 hours ago.

1) I am not able to view any channels that have more than one audio PID 
defined (e.g. output from dvbtune -> xml2vdr -> channels.conf)

2) VDR does not appear to take any notice of any DVB-T parameters.

An example tuning to the BBC Mux 1:

$ dvbtune -f 754166667 -qam 64 -cr 2_3

This tunes in immediately, but as we know, this mux now broadcasts in 
QAM16/FEC_3_4, so it would seem logical that I need to specify this in 
the channels.conf.

Now, my channels.conf:

BBC ONE (TV):754166:C34M16Y0:0:27500:600:601:0:0:4168
BBC TWO (TV):754166:C34M16Y0:0:27500:610:611:0:0:4232
BBC THREE (TV):754166:C34M16Y0:0:27500:620:621:0:0:4351
BBC NEWS 24 (TV):754166:C34M16Y0:0:27500:640:641:0:0:4415

If I run 'vdr -Pdxr3', I am not able to watch any channels.

Now I 'dvbtune -f 754166667 -qam 16 -cr 3_4' and run vdr again - all
four channels now work flawlessly. 

So, I change channels.conf so each channel is 'C78M64Y3' - crazy values 
that should never work in the UK.

I run vdr again, and all four channels still work perfectly :/

Agh!

gdh.
