[vlc-devel] EPG standard ignorants

Hi,

  I just found this:

http://cvs.tuxbox.org/tuxbox/apps/dvb/zapit/src/zapsi/descriptors.cpp?rev=1.76&view=markup

According to the source, DVB standard is ignored by the following 
5 providers:

CanalSatélite
Chambre des Députées
SKY  (former Premiére)
Digital+
BetaDigital

Moreover, Digital+ is not detectable by the name - the source lists a number of
tsids. 

I believe this is a no-go for VLC, so I propose to stay with language codes
used by those providers and modify the list of exceptions like this:

        if ( !strncasecmp( psz_lang, "fre", 3 ) ||
             !strncasecmp( psz_lang, "deu", 3 ) ||
             !strncasecmp( psz_lang, "spa", 3 ) )
        {
            psz_encoding = "ISO_8859-1";
        }
        else
        {
            psz_encoding = "ISO_6937";
        }

OK to commit this?
 

   Thanks & kind regards,

        M.
