As has already been said in other replies to this message (which unfortunately
broke the thread) this is not a problem you are concerned with, unless you are
working at one of the listed broadcasters and are in charge of the EPG data
format.

If you don't want to see this message in the future, you can insert a 'return'
statement at the beginning of ReportEpgBugFixStats() in VDR/eit.c, as in

static void ReportEpgBugFixStats(bool Reset = false)
{
  return; // <=== insert this line!
  if (Setup.EPGBugfixLevel > 0) {
     bool GotHits = false;
...

I'm issuing this report in the faint hope that some day somebody who really is
in charge of these things will read this and eventually get his head out of his
a** wide enough to see what's wrong here - and maybe even fix it...
