The VideoLAN Forums

Hi all,

since I'd like to view DVB-T on my laptop with VLC (and in order to prepare a m3u playlist before going on vacation), I wonder if anybody in this forum knew where I could find what seems to be called Service-ID (SID) numbers for the particular TV "stations/channels/programs" contained in a "bouquet" (as they say in German).

An Example: For the transmitter "Gaisberg" in Austria (and probably for most of the transmitters in the world) on Wikipedia one can easily retrieve information such as:

MUX A channel 32 (562 MHz)
ORF 1, ORF 2 Salzburg, ORF 2 Oberösterreich, ATV

However, in order to distinguish between the four different tv-"stations" transmitting on channel 32 while accessing the signal with VLC, one needs additional information - the Service-ID -for the creation of m3u-playlist that would look like this eventually

• 
  #EXTM3U
  
  #EXTINF: ORF1
  #EXTVLCOPT:program=10101
  dvb-t://frequency=562000000
  
  #EXTINF: ORF2 Salzburg
  #EXTVLCOPT:program=10107
  dvb-t://frequency=562000000
  
  #EXTINF: ORF 2 Oberösterreich
  #EXTVLCOPT:program=10127
  dvb-t://frequency=562000000
  
  #EXTINF: ATV
  #EXTVLCOPT:program=10120
  dvb-t://frequency=562000000

So, question is: Where would one get that important piece of information for DVB-T transmitters, say in the Lake Constanze/Bodensee region (which would be probably Säntis in Switzerland, Pfänder in Austria and Höchsten/Ravensburg for Germany).
