I have used channelscan. this is a very useful plugin, when adding new sats to your system. but my question is when you do a scan, where does it store the information once the scan is complete, and also how does this plugin get copied over to the channels.conf file.

Hi
a new plugin channelscan has been released. Channelscan uses a transponders .ini file from win project like prog-DVB software for create a channels.conf
The homepage of the plugin is at http://www.kikko77.altervista.org goto download page for the channelscan-0.0.4.tar.bz2 archive
-------------------------------
changelog: 2005-04-11: Version 0.0.4
- Channelscan is now faster because sets the filters for sdt, pat and
pmt itself, so it now knows when scanning of a transponder is over.(idea from Luca Olivetti) (write by Thomas Bergwinkl)
I see you've copied large parts of VDR's pat and sdt code in order to introduce what I assume shall improve performance.
Would you mind elaborating on all these changes and letting me know what and why they do, so maybe the official VDR code might also benefit?
Generally it's not such a good idea to duplicate large code segments in a plugin...
