there was the alternate channel patch (http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Alternative_channel-patch). This patch provides alternative channels for timers, if the programmed channel was not available. Is there any patch providing this functionality for live-tv, too ?

sorry, I do not know.

If not, i would like to develop such a functionality. Does anybody knows why the patch doesn't get integrated ?

Klaus decides what goes into VDR. I do not know if he knows about the patch or if it was sent to this list.

Is such a functionality unwanted ?

I recommend, that you send this patch to this list to get it reviewed. I guess Klaus will comment on it if he has time.

What is the workflow to parcipiate in developing the vdr ?

As far as I know, you create a patch and you send it to this list or to Klaus directly.

Thanks,

Paul
