[mythtv] MythFillDataBase using/supplying DVB information?

[William Uther]

Hi,
   With Daniel's recent commits, I thought I'd mention something I'm  
getting in my xmltv data... namely DVB service id's, transport-stream  
id's and original-network id's.  Here is a snippet of the output from  
my grabber :

<tv source-info-name="tvguide.org.au and icetv.com.au"
	generator-info-name="XMLTV - tv_grab_au_reg $Date: 2006-03-19  
12:02:35 +1100 (Sun, 19 Mar 2006) $"
	generator-info-url="http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~willu/xmltv/ 
tv_grab_au_reg.html">

<channel id="nsw.abc.com.au">
		<display-name>ABC</display-name>
		<region-name>Sydney</region-name>
		<service-id>545</service-id>
		<transport-stream-id>545</transport-stream-id>
		<original-network-id>4112</original-network-id>
		<lcn>2</lcn>
	</channel>
<channel id="hd.nsw.abc.com.au">
		<display-name>ABC HD</display-name>
		<region-name>Sydney</region-name>
		<service-id/>
		<transport-stream-id/>
		<original-network-id/>
		<lcn>0</lcn>
	</channel>

This info is provided by the IceTV.com.au provider in Australia.   
Note that not all channels have the info, but it seems the standard  
definition ones do.

I was looking to incorporate these non-standard tags into  
Mythfilldatabase at some time, but haven't had the time recently.

Daniel: I don't expect you to incorporate this, but if you happen to  
be in the area for a DataDirect -> ATSC link, and it isn't too much  
hassle, can you make the hooks general enough to be used for this?

Thank'ee,

Will         :-}
