Assuming I am reading the DVB documentation correctly, the behaviour 
of this patch is now incorrect, it is perfectly valid to feed EIT for
a service that is marked as not running.  See section 4.1.4.1 / 2 
of DVB Document A005 (r5).  If EIT data is present, TOT / TDT probably 
should also be present.

Good work on so many bug fixes and patches though - wish I had the 
time to do some more at the moment!

Andy.
