Comment:

 Except for the UpdatePAT() only being sent when the program isn't set,
 this is technically correct. But it would disable some useful warnings in
 CreatePATSingleProgram().

 Right now CreatePATSingleProgram() tells you if the desired program wasn't
 found, which is a telltale inidicator that you need to rescan your inputs.
 And, it tells you if there are no programs in the PAT, a telltale
 indicator of a broken transport to delete from your lineup.

 A better solution might be to avoid processing stale data. I thought that
 closing and reopening the file descriptor for the DVR device would be
 enough, but perhaps we need to reset the device somehow in the
 DVBSignalMonitor?

 Please reply in the mailing list.
