No, I applied it up to (but not including) vdr 1.3.18: first it doesn't 
apply and second I though that the built-in setting would accomplish the 
same thing. It seems it doesn't.

I suppose, the existing channel.conf has been generated with the 
preferred audio patch previously, which would put the preferred 
languages first (without this kludge I could only select two languages I 
cannot understand).
1.3.18 didn't auto-update the channel though.

So the language setting in the dvb options is only for selecting the 
default languange on channel switch?

not a problem (well, actually it is since I can only select the first 
two pids, as before). I'll try to coerce the preferred audio patch or 
wait until all languages can be selected.
