[vdr] Re: Proposal/Announcement: Alternative SI library

[Marcel Wiesweg <marcel.wiesweg@gmx.de>]

this continues the above message, I pressed the wrong button in the wrong 
window ;-)

[...]
- loops are parsed only when a member is requested
- no intermediate storage: all objects in a section operate on one buffer
- a single part can be stored for later use

Why reinvent the wheel?
- it's fun coding such things in C++
- I took over si_tables.h from libdtv
- since there are many hopes for something like cReceiver for sections
  in 1.3, plugin developers now have choice.

There is a example for the API:
http://www.wiesweg-online.de/linux/vdr/vdr-eit.patch
ports VDR's eit.c to the new library.

Status of the library:
There may be some bugs, but EIT, PAT, PMT works just fine.
All tables are implemented.
Many descriptors are unimplemented.

Marcel
