ATSC/QAM channel names are not always used even when they are available. This issues is caused by a race condition in TsWriter. The TVCT/CVCT is only parsed once (unless the version number increases during scanning - not common), and if it is received before the PAT for a given channel then the information it contains won't be used. The patch ensures it is parsed each time it is received, which is not necessarily efficient. But there is no easy way to rectify the issue for efficient processing without very complicated code.
