okay, i accept that you have other priorities in the moment..

i don't want to have a signal-meter to adjust my dish.
i only want to find out, if i have audio- and video-problems, if i have
problems with the signal strength or with the software..

@Klaus:
what about my other idea, to define a new field in the channels.conf file
to set a specific volume-value for every channel, to avoid big differnces
between the different channels??
is this possible and do you think that it is a good idea to implement it??

thanks for your effort to develop and enhance the VDR..
