Hi,

I installed above sw yesterday with Elchi & dvb subtitles 0.1.0alpha &
epg fix language -patches. Installation works great.

However I downloaded satellite settings from net and inserted
those into channels.conf. After restart I got 
"ERROR: channel data results in invalid ID!" and vdr didn't start
with messages at user.log.

Nov 11 09:58:56 vdr vdr[679]: ERROR: error in /etc/vdr//channels.conf, line 168
(and again this VDR ... started message because of runvdr)
------------------

I traced the problem back to TID-field in channels.conf. If TID
was 0 above error came in 'DVB-S section'. And according to lyngsat
TID=0 is used on some transponders.

Also I got a couple of "Channel not uniques" so I deleted those
duplicate entries. But should duplicate entries be allowed for usage
in different 'lists'.

Settings were (I also have DVB-C entries at start so above error line
doesn't match): 
http://www.zwez.com/sat/vdr/Quark82_29-Okt03.rar

For example one entry giving error was:
DCTV-german:12236:V:S13E:13400:1160:1123:0:0:14:318:0:0

So after changing it to:
DCTV-german:12236:V:S13E:13400:1160:1123:0:0:14:318:1:0

I got past the error. But of cource channel won't be visible but I don't
mind it. Of cource I could delete it but I didn't. This was I could 
modify TID via VDR channel setup menu and see if channel works after
that (but I didn't do it).

I this real/known/unknown problem or have I missed something?

Best regards, Jori
