Considering that the "multiproto" API did think of handling this,
I really don't understand why the "technologically superior" *S2*API
didn't even think of this.

Requiring the user to configure this is a workaround that even
more disqualifies the decision to go S2API.

But anyway, it looks like we're stuck with this inferior API, so
I've posted a patch that adds this capability. Let's hope it gets
adopted - VDR 1.7.2 will require it, anyway.

Klaus
