When recording, VDR tries to preserve devices that provide multiple delivery systems: imp <<= 2; imp |= GetClippedNumProvidedSystems(2, device[i]) - 1; // avoid cards which support multiple delivery systems See device.c, cDevice *cDevice::GetDevice(const cChannel *Channel, int Priority, bool LiveView).
