Recommended Posts

I would like to know how is channel id in favorites.xml created. For example, I have line in favorites.xml like this:

<entry name="0">2359890960378250333|ProSieben</entry>

How is this "2359890960378250333" created? Is it possible to read it from channels.dat?

Thanks for the reply, but the forumula (in the link) doesn't give proper channel ID :(

 

Formula: (tunertype + 1) * 536870912 + APID * 65536 + SID

 

Channel: ProSieben:

Tunertype = DVB-S = 1

APID = 512

SID = 17501

Result channel ID = 1107313757

 

Should be 2359890960378250333.

..it's a 64 Bit Channel ID

 

 

Should be 2359890960378250333

=0x20C0 0453 4200 445D

 

Word 0: 0x445D SID

Word 1: 0x0200 APID bit 0-12; bit 13..15: Tunertype (0 = undefined, 1 = DVB-C, 2 = DVB-S, 3 = DVB-T, 4 = ATSC)

Word 2: 0x0453 TID

Word 3: 0x20C0 bit 0..12: orbital position x 10 (range 0...8999), bit 13..14: TV/Radio (0 = undefined, 1 = TV, 2 = Radio, 3 = reserved)

 

Astra 19E: 0192=0xC0

 

That's pro7 with mpeg audio :D
