Hmm. Something else to look into then.

Thanks. I tried it on Myth recordings from every channel and it didn't
report any AFD codes. (I hope it was OK to run it on Myth recordings,
though your header comment mentioned VDR. It did successfully report the
16:9 aspect ratio in every file.) Pity, but not surprising as I haven't
found our DVB-T service to be particularly excellent here.

By the way, afd wouldn't run on files > 2 Gb (which is most of my
recordings) without the attached patch.
