I think someone is working on an auto pids patch if you look back in the

Thats great, I only setup radio one so far as I couldn't seem to find
video pids to match other stations ( I didn't try very hard though!).

I'd like to see the auto-archive script too, mianly because I am
wondering why it only works for dvb recordings.
