Mplayer detects that your stream is transport stream, which is what vdr
requires.

This is the pid information vdr also requires in the channels.conf entry.

This means that the stream is using h264 encoding.

The line was added by vdr when it detected that the stream is in the format it
supports. (Though I wonder if it shouldn't happen when disabling sid scanning
with S0.)

It also means that iptv plugin is working and the stream in rtp format
is really supported.

The entry contains 0 as the video pid which means that the channel is treated
like a radio channel.

This is what xineliboutput does when viewing a radio channel. It's called the
goom plugin.


I think you are only missing h264 support from vdr core which could be the
reason why the video pid of the channel is set to zero.

A patch for adding h264 support to vdr 1.6 -series is included in this mailing
list post: http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/2008-March/016227.html

It's the 
vdr-1.5.18-h264-syncearly-framespersec-audioindexer-fielddetection-speedup.diff.bz2
and it works for 1.6 even though the name suggests 1.5 version.

Vdr 1.7.x includes h264 support by default.
