[MPlayer-dev-eng] chanlist for ireland

[Gavin McCullagh]

Hi,

I have been using mplayer/mencoder lately for tv tuning and got quite
frustrated trying to get it to see my channels.  It turns out that the
pal_ireland channel list is incomplete.

I downloaded the current downstream Ubuntu mplayer source and rebuilt it
with the xawtv channel set and now all of my channels work very nicely.
The frequency table which xawtv uses contains all of the 10 channels in the
existing mplayer list but adds 26 more.  It also uses a different naming
scheme (see both below).

Would you consider adding these extra channels please?  The source I'm
looking at has the channels in libmpdemux/frequencies.c, but the latest SVN
seems to now have them in stream/frequencies.c.

	http://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk/stream/frequencies.c?view=markup

Are there any plans for mencoder to read in frequency tables from external
files?

Many thanks for a great program,
Gavin

This is the existing set:

static struct CHANLIST pal_ireland[] = {
    { "0",    45750 },
    { "1",    53750 },
    { "2",    61750 },
    { "3",   175250 },
    { "4",   183250 },
    { "5",   191250 },
    { "6",   199250 },
    { "7",   207250 },
    { "8",   215250 },
    FREQ_UHF,
};

These is the set using xawtv's list:

static struct CHANLIST pal_ireland[] = {
        { "A0",   45750 },
        { "A1",   48000 },
        { "A2",   53750 },
        { "A3",   56000 },
        { "A4",   61750 },
        { "A5",   64000 },
        { "A6",   175250 },
        { "A7",   176000 },
        { "A8",   183250 },
        { "A9",   184000 },
        { "A10",   191250 },
        { "A11",   192000 },
        { "A12",   199250 },
        { "A13",   200000 },
        { "A14",   207250 },
        { "A15",   208000 },
        { "A16",   215250 },
        { "A17",   216000 },
        { "A18",   224000 },
        { "A19",   232000 },
        { "A20",   248000 },
        { "A21",   256000 },
        { "A22",   264000 },
        { "A23",   272000 },
        { "A24",   280000 },
        { "A25",   288000 },
        { "A26",   296000 },
        { "A27",   304000 },
        { "A28",   312000 }
        { "A29",   320000 },
        { "A30",   344000 },
        { "A31",   352000 },
        { "A32",   408000 },
        { "A33",   416000 },
        { "A34",   448000 },
        { "A35",   480000 },
        { "A36",   520000 },
