Replicated services show wrong LCN
Issue #170
resolved
Replicated services like 12, 21 and 70 show the LCN for the first service with the matching a "Service Name", i,e 1, 2 and 7 respectively.
For Melbourne the following replicated services occur :-
LCN SID "Service Name" 1 631 "ONE" 12 637 "ONE" 2 231 "ABC1" 21 233 "ABC1" 7 530 "7 Digital" 70 534 "7 Digital" 71 531 "7 Digital 1"
Replicated service 71 which has a unique "Service Name" is correctly displayed as LCN 71, the other 3 get it wrong.
The /etc/engima2/* dump attached to Bug #61, http://wiztv.com.au/bugs/files/show/83 can show the issue.
The code seems to be very convoluted chasing down the matching "Service Name" from the PMT, it would be a lot simpler to just key off the unique SID/TSID/ONID. Also if a entry is renamed then no LCN is displayed because no matching name can be found. And when the Network decides to change the "Service Name", which does happen, then again no LCN will be shown.
Reproduction steps
Tune to a replicated service, show the infobar window, see the wrong LCN displayed.

I agree, the DVB ON/TS/S ID triplet should be used, it's the official way of addressing DVB services. I have not seen the code - in fact I don't even know which file it's in.
However, if you want to have a go at changing the code, I'd be happy to review any patches and get them to the developers.

Is "status window" the infobar? I wasn't sure whether it was that, or MENU>Setup>Information>Service, but that doesn't seem to have any "LCN" information.
If it's the infobar, I see the same for the replicated ABC1 and Prime & services in Canberra.
