[vdr] Re: SF2 / multi-audio recording: problem with SRG

>is anyone on the list who gets SF2 ?

Yes. SF1/SF2/TSIx/TSR has one great feature: They broadcast a lot of 
movies and series in two languages (D/F/I and original, mostly E). 
But there is one little problem when receiving/playing back these 
with VDR not over a tv with 2 channel sound selection:

With Viaccess CAM and the six channels of swiss television SRG I can 
record both audio PIDs. The problem is that SRG uses the first PID 
for german sound, on the second PID on one channel (left or right) 
they broadcast original sound in mono and on the other channel again 
german sound in mono. So I can't listen to recordings unless I plug 
out one audio connector on my amplifier. Would it be possible to 
implement a selection of the playback channel (which should then be 
played over the left and right channel) in VDR? I don't know if other 
TV stations use this stupid system, but for all VDR users in 
Switzerland this would be a great improvement (for example SF1 is 
broadcasting "The Sopranos" D/E).

Maybe Klaus or another list reader capable of programing could 
implement this in VDR...?
