But the Problem is, that channel scanning + grabbing EPG data (while
vdradmin is running) seems to work with all channels, but
ARD/RBB/Phoenix, ZDF/3sat/KiKA, MDR,NDR,arte.

And if I change the channels.conf to only include ARD/ZDF, then indeed
data from ARD shows up. And if I leave the channels conf as is and
record something on ARD or ZDF also that EPG data shows up, but it does
not from the start (like on all the other channels)...

Best,
Soeren
